This Sacramento Bee is the largest newspaper in the region, but its editorial views are often at odds with the politics and beliefs of areas outside Sacramento’s urban core. The Bee tends to represent those interests that are urban and deeply liberal in their social and economic policies. Great. That message plays well in the city of Sacramento.

Rural California and the people who have moved there...

Search-and-rescue volunteers discovered the body of Rory Angelotta, 43, near a residential neighborhood and roughly 3 miles from the boundaries of the Northstar Ski Resort, the Placer County Sheriff's Office said in a statement Saturday.

In GOP-rich Placer County, the Placer County Republican Central Committee chairman views himself as a brand manager of sorts. "We need to protect our brand," said Tom Hudson.

With the elected committee's backing, Hudson has drafted candidates to run against sitting GOP officeholders he views as not conservative enough, orchestrated a controversial endorsement during the primary for the 4th Congressional District seat, and played a role in the decision by two Placer County officeholders to drop their Republican...
