But .it surely is packed with news—all about this town and. county— seems to be the only place the people here can turn for that type of news.
Well, that’s the tour. Physically, these newspapers may be a lot different, but they have one thing in common—they’re keeping their readers informed.
And there are about 11,000 other newspapers doing the same thing. Big ones, small ones and medium sized, in every state. They don’t all agree on just how or what to write about, or how to present it, but one thing they do agree on—rtheir newspapers belong to the people, and the people have a right to know.
Just to keep that in the public mind, these 11,000 are joining in celebrating National N e w s paper Week, October 1-8. And each one will tell its readers—“Your newspaper fights for* your right to know.” —Publishers Auxiliary
