EDITORIAL
|
|
|
| The
amount of information contained in each edition of The Outlook is
determined by the amount of advertising in that issue. The decision
on which story or picture to run first is generally made based upon
several criteria. |
|
|
|
| Publicity
of an event before it happens takes priority |
|
|
|
| The
best way to guarantee the maximum coverage of an upcoming event or
organization is to provide at least a two-week notice. To make sure
we publish the information correctly, we ask that you provide us the
information in writing by e-mailing it to [email protected],
faxing it to (606) 348-8848, or bringing it by our office at 109
East Columbia Ave. You should provide as much detail as possible�who,
what, when, where, why, and contact name and telephone number. The
person providing us the information should also include a daytime
telephone number in case we have questions. You do not have to be a
professional writer; we will put your information into the proper
format. |
|
|
|
| We
encourage everyone to submit information to us about the
achievements and activities within Wayne County and surrounding
areas. There is no charge for articles or photographs. While we
attempt to provide staff coverage for community activities, there
are times when conflicts arise and we cannot attend your event. If
you provide us information about your activity we will publish an
article. Likewise, we can accept any size photograph, either black
or white or color. The only format we have difficulty in printing
are Polaroid pictures because their quality tends to be poor. We are
especially interested in articles and photographs concerning new
employees, promotions, club activities, civic organization programs,
birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and engagements, honors and
awards.

|
|
|
| An
advertisement is a paid announcement that runs on the week or weeks
you specify. News articles and public service announcements are free
and provide information concerning events and activities in the
community. We do not guarantee a date of publication for a news
article.
|
|
|
|
| While
a lot of our staff-generated articles are the result of meetings or
actions taken in our legal system, a majority of the stories are the
result of someone calling to tell us about an interesting person,
place or upcoming event. The final decision on what to cover is made
by the News Editor, based upon what stories are likely to have the
most reader interest.
