Hello,
My name is Laura Tailby and I am a
student at the University of Richmond in Virginia. I have been
monitoring your paper for the past few weeks for a journalism class
I am enrolled in at school. We are supposed to observe a few papers
daily to see just how good they are.
I noticed that most of the top local
stories are usually on a happier note. Do you prefer to put stories
in the paper that will make the community happy and ignore the
stories of crime that might upset them? Or is your community truly
one of the better ones?
I think you have a really good paper
here, and I was just wondering if there was anything you would like
someone to know who has been paying such close attention to your
work.
Hope you are having a wonderful
holiday!
Thanks so much,
Laura Tailby

To the editor:
I used to access the radio broadcast
of Lincoln Railer basketball from your site.
I haven't found the link available
for this current basketball season. Does the radio station have
its own Web page??? Or how does one go about accessing the
Internet broadcast of Lincoln Railer basketball?
I lived in Lincoln for 10 years but
now live outside the broadcast range of FM-96.

To the editor:
I just read the
article concerning the ongoing McCann versus city of Lincoln
saga. I viewed the photos available online of McCann's properties.
Yes, the properties are an eyesore.
But I must say there are several other properties within the city
of Lincoln that are in the same shape. Look at the Mill
restaurant, for example, and numerous residential properties. It
is not a pretty picture (for any neighbor to look out of their
window or drive by on the way to your own home) for anyone.

This seems to be a fight of who can
outwit or withstand the other. For heaven's sake, this is costing
taxpayers (including McCann) to continue this prolonged battle. I
am certain the court has more important issues to be determined,
and the city of Lincoln has more productive ways to spend revenue!
Clean it up, be done and move on!
