What do people want to read in the newspaper?

What types of stories do people like to read in the newspapers? Which are the most exciting and which ones put you to sleep? Is there any particular topic that is local to the Lakes Region that you would like to know more about? Shoot me some ideas...

I'd like to see a local paper publish the incident log of the NHMP with some follow up stories. Also something along the lines of a local "light list" would be helpful.

I'd like to see less opinion pieces from syndicated writers, I'd be much more interested in reading how locals are weighing in on an issue and why.

And finally, go against the entire industry trend and invest in local reporters to do local stories and not rely so much on the wire services. We can get the wire service stories anywhere!

Barrett, Director of the Division of Safety Services, said the low fatality rates reflect a combination of factors, such as mandatory boater education, aggressive patrol and a cooperative spirit and partnership between the marine trades and water-related tourist businesses.
