Recently, a documentary film team was here to interview us about our newspaper's powerful influence on local racial/cultural issues. Steven Spielberg is sitting on a movie-rights option with a story about Kit Carson based in our back yard. Here, yesterday and today are a live link, and the outdoors adventure life is the world's greatest!

We need a reporter, and soon we will need a sportswriter/designer. The beat will depend in part on your strengths and interests.

Whimps need not apply. We go after racial bigots and closed-minded governments, and the battle often gets fierce. The rewards, however, are tremendous.


I don't think my blood pressure could stand this.

This editor has no concept of reality. The reporter he wants isn't going to work for as little as he's going to pay. (I love that he actually sneers at the idea of being paid well for working hard.)
