Support Your Local Newspaper

Folks, we have seen how "News-Star" is working to bring hard-hitting news about our ward to the forefront. Now is the time to support them and what better way than to subscribe! We have also been told to expect to see News-Star at newsstands around the ward, more than likely near coffeeshops and El stations. If you choose not to subscribe, at least buy a copy to take on the train with you. Let's show the publisher that we are starving for more in-depth reporting on what takes place in our neighborhood. Also, we know we have excellent writers out there, so don't be bashful. Send in your editorials to News-Star and they may be published. Info below.
