We are pleased to see in tonight’s paper that the HDN reporters are checking our blog to get the latest news, happenings, and “scoops” from around Havre. Nice story about Commissioner Candidate Jeff Lavoi by the way but you really should have used the Corrector’s photo of Mike Anderson. We would be happy to try to send some “breaking news” type tips to the paper so they don’t have to read about the news around Havre from a blog but we have found in the past that when we have e-mailed the paper with “news” and “ideas” we were basically ignored. We may just have a few more stories up our sleeve so stay tuned. If the HDN wants to get the story ahead of us they should be digging deeper at both the Hill County Courthouse and at the Havre School system. Maybe a reporter at the School “foundation” bid opening would produce an interesting story.
We hear allot of talk around town about this blog, some love it, others think we go too far, but the fact of the matter is that local people love having a place to vent and express their opinions. We try to get information out “early” and from the perspective of the “man on the street”.
Remember, if it’s stupid or the story advocates change we will be on the job. Thanks to all our readers for your comments and to those that have e-mailed us “tips” to
havredailycorrector@bresnan.net

I'm with you Jimbo. I spend more time reading this blog than I do reading the newspaper. Quite entertaining. No ads, very informative blogs (down and dirty info instead of skim the surface reporting from the newspaper) and not to mention some comments are quite hilarious. It's kind of like a reality show on the computer. Keep up the good work Corrector!
ReplyDeleteI think the both of you are right. This is best source for Havre news and gossip.. I really going to miss this place if it ever gets shut down. It may if they piss off right people in that town, but hey, those pricks had it coming and I know what is like to shovel shit in your life, but it feels so good to throw it back at those who made you do it. "I've shit all my life, and now I'm dumping it on you." Go Havre Daily corrector
