Straight From The Horse's Mouth - An Editorial Comment


Published by Clark Kant, Editor In Chief

The news business is very fragmented in Hermann. Hermannites have many choices.  In addition to the Hermann Advertiser-Courier, the traditional newspaper of record in Gasconade County, we now have four new non-traditional online daily news websites:

http://www.countynewslive.com/,
http://www.gcsoapbox.com/,
http://www.hermannhearsay.blogspot.com/, and
http://www.hermannnews.com/

(I should point out to our readers that the Hermann Advertiser-Courier also has a website:  http://www.hermannadvertisercourier.com/.)

Between all five of us, we should have the local Hermann news scene "covered like a blanket".  No story can escape us!  As a matter of fact, we may have the local news so well covered that we may at times end up covering each other covering the news! Ha ha ha!

I just want to say to my colleagues in the news publishing business, Don Kruse (Hermann A-C), Jeff Noedel (CountyNewsLIVE.com), Hank Vonk (GCSoapbox.com) and Glenn Warnebold 
(HermannNEWS.com), that I wish you all the best with your local news enterprises!  And if HermannHearsay can ever assist you in any way, for example by loaning out some of our photographic equipment or perhaps providing you the temporary use of Jimmy Oldsun to cover a random sickday for a member of your staff, please contact us immediately!

Again, to my colleagues in the news business, ALL THE BEST!
