Do Kerrigan’s Constituents Miss Him?

The Eureka Reporter had published a Letter to the Editor regarding Kerrigan's absence.

Thinking about the letter, it only demonstrated, maybe a lack of understanding how things work today; following old ideas. Not looking at new opportunities and ways of accomplishing common goals. I

t was an opportunity for him to work with the Edwards campaign, Kerrigan's benefit. But it may also turn out to be a benefit (one not seen), in the future to the north coast.

Missing Kerrigan? Probably not, for if it is needed, I understand Email works very well. As well as having other Council-members available to speak with if there is a concern.

Two Newspapers...

Here in Eureka, we have two newspapers, the Eureka Reporter and the Times Standard. The Eureka Reporter is published and distributed throughout Eureka free, though I believe you can have it delivered to your house for a fee. The Eureka Reporter is owned by the Arkley family and was started in 2003. The Eureka Reporter covers the Greater Eureka area and county news. It is independently and locally owned and features a local publisher/editor and writers. It has a daily publication in print and on the Web site, which is updated on a frequent basis throughout the week for articles of a timely nature.

As for the Times-Standard it has a much longer history and its distribution is throughout the county. it is now owned by a corporation that owns other papers and claims to servie the northcoast by covering local news because they’re a community newspaper — our community’s daily newspaper.

Well, be it true for either newspaper, I find the Eureka Reporter covers more local information/news and as for the Times-Standard local coverage is limited.

What are others thoughts?
