Lebanon where? I really, really, really wish that FReepers would just add the state identifier in parenthesis in these stories from local newspapers. In their original context, everyone knows where “Lebanon” is. But when you put it on a national website, we don’t. And often even if one goes to the link, one can’t find out because there’s no hint in the original story because it’s in a local newspaper or on a local TV site and they don’t need to and don’t mention the state.

I didn’t bother to go to the link for this one. I’m tired of going to the link only to be unable to figure it out. Perhaps this one would have offered the necessary information.

But why can’t people just put the state abbreviation in parenthesis in the FR headline???????

In addition, I wish Freepers would stop posting local news in the Breaking News section. If local domestic disputes are worthy of Breaking News, then how about the large pothole at the end of my driveway?

I agree.. a state ID in thread titles would be helpful

Lebanon where?

There is a Lebanon, PA. Maybe near this place.
