You tell us!

March 2, 2010

This web site just celebrated its second anniversary as an online complement to the print version of Grassroots Press. Within limitations of my schedule, I have expanded the scope of the bimonthly print product to include frequent announcements of upcoming events of interest to the local progressive community, added a headlines section via Twitter, interesting videos and guest blogs on topics ranging from local to global.

The major articles in the print version are usually posted to the site as well, more or less simultaneously with publication. In addition, I’ve tried to provide some more timely local coverage of political and cultural events. My objective has been to offer a Las Cruces-based perspective that sustains and enlarges the scope of Grassroots Press.

    I love all the info about current events and the editorials. My computer finds it difficult to load the page because of all the videos. Is it possible for you to link the videos separately?

    These comments are very helpful! Regarding the videos, I don’t know of a way to link them separately but I can keep the number manageable. I just deleted about half a dozen. Hope that helps on loading the page.

    I read the Grassroots Press online faithly – every online edition that comes out and trust what I see there for its journalistic integrity. I find it very easy to get the full articles and use the website. I would be lost without the good local coverage it provides.

Got something to say?
