What else should people know about your site:

Our news stories are guided by a working definition of news. Lake City Journal is an experiment in the future of local journalism. We offer local news, feature stories, photos and videos. We rarely write editorials and never endorse political candidates. We have a reputation of being fair, complete and accurate. It is more importahnt to get it right than to get it first.

What are your suggestions and/or links to other community news sites that should be added to the directory?

Treat everyone fairly and equally. Hold yourself and your organization to the sames standards as you hold governmental organizations and other businesses. Immediately correct any errors that appear on your site and acknowledge the error. Treat the news as living history and as a reference for the future.
