Chad, you're getting some damn good advice, huh?

Here's my two cents. Instead of a newspaper, what about a monthly or semi-monthly magazine? Why? I suspect you want to get out the "real" news to debunk liberal lies and propoganda, right? To me, point-counterpoint articles won't play that well in a daily newspaper format. Nor will the conservative writers have enough time to fully think through their articles. But if you had a magazine you would have all the space and time required to debunk the libber lies on a point by point basis. THAT's what drives liberals crazy -- the truth.

For example, take Hillary's latest spiel about GW trying to ruin Medicare and Social Security. That nonsense could be easily tossed back in her lap if someone took the time to point out all the things GW and the conservatives had done, and are still doing, to preserve both programs.

Another added benefit of a magazine is that, for example, George Will's or Ann Coulter's newspaper columns could be gathered up and posted in an organized and more useful way in a magazine. I suspect they both get paid a bundle for their syndication rights . . . perhaps they'd be cheaper in a magazine format since all they'd be are compilations of columns instead of being hot off the presses.

Anyway, that's my two cents. Keep plugging away. We can NEVER have enough conservative outlets.

That would be nice - except, we are planning to concentrate on more local issues - what's happening around the state and it's communities. A national magazine (Free Republic Magazine has a ring to it, don't ya think?) would be great if anyone wants to take the ball and run with it - but I think dealing with closer-to-home issues is a good way to go for a small publication...


Thanks for your input, it is much appreciated!

(Anyone with tons and tons of money to spare, contact me about the national monthly magazine idea LOL)
