La Conner Weekly News - Your independent hometown award-winning newspaper

To all the people who aren’t liking Mr. Stern’s inclusion of news beyond La Conner in the paper, I would like to respectfully remind you of one fact. When the paper was owned by Ms. Vest and Ms. Stokes those ladies often chose to include stories that were originally written by reporters based in Olympia, and covered stories regarding news coming out of our state’s capitol.

Again, I say this with respect, but I don’t remember reading any letters of complaint during that time period.

Let’s face it, there just isn’t enough constant news coming out of our small community for a weekly paper to not include occasional stories from other places. I realize there are differing opinions, but I personally am fine with that.
