Ever since my youth when I was a paperboy on Mary Street in Goderich, I've loved a good newspaper. They don't hold place in our world anymore with the advent of so much digital media and I get that the world is ever evolving, but to me, there's still nothing quite like holding real pages.
Today we're going to talk about a great local paper that yes, you can read online, but it's also a rare, independent, community-owned newspaper, serving Huron County, that you can still hold a physical copy of. I love that.
We'll talk about the history of this great local news source and why a local paper is important to a community, with some of the people who make "The Citizen" happen for us each week: Publisher Deb Sholdice, Editor Shawn Loughlin and Reporter Scott Stephenson.
Here are some great episodes to start with. Or, check out episodes by topic.
