Hi Barry. I am Tobias, 60something Biologist, live in New England USA. I read my local print (gasp) newspaper but its coverage is spotty. I like to be informed about the world. I get the Guardian week in Review but often just read the big stories and culture stuff. I am grateful for your wise and useful selection of key stories. Keep up the great work!

Hi Tobias,

Print! Never! It is still such a lovely experience to sit down with a newspaper and a tea/coffee/beer, isn't it? Reading local news is so important, especially in a massive country like the US where the major organisations just can't, or are sometimes unwilling, to have eyes everywhere. Disturbing to read how many local outlets have closed in recent years.

Thanks for reading, sir.

Barry.

My pleasure. Keep those important stories coming. There is a bit of joy on the local news front insofar as several orgs., eg Aixos, are investing in local reporting. Of course not in print necessarily but at least in coverage. Got to help. Tobias
