While I can't reveal details, News Bonners Ferry
has a buyer, and I'm pleased to announce that
they are local, committed to the community and
eager to continue what I have tried so hard to
do; provide the people of Boundary County a
source of free, accurate and timely news.
For the time being, readers will notice little
change as I will continue to maintain the site
as we work on transitioning ownership. If
anything, I'm confident News Bonners Ferry will
improve, both as a business and as a trusted
news source.
Those who contend that the success of this site
is due solely to my writing and dedication, I am
confident that the new owners will belie that
myth.
Our readers will still be the focus of the site;
you are the true reason for our success.
Current advertisers on the site will see no
change. New advertisers will gain the good
service I couldn't provide. No where else will
you find a better vehicle to get your word out
to customers and potential clients, 24/7 and
around the world. While newsbf strives to report
local news, it recognizes that people who love
this community as we do span the globe.
I came to Boundary County more than 20 years ago
to be a reporter, trying to learn my chops so as
to leave this small town to go where reporting
pays.
I discovered that no news is more important than
local news, and that being privileged to provide
it to those who are my close neighbors is an
unparalleled trust and honor.
Those who now own newsbf.com share that
conviction, and I pray readers and advertisers
alike will continue to support their efforts to
serve you.
I think newsbf, to date, can be rated okay or
fair. Giving a stretch, I might accede to good.
With the skills and talent the new owners bring,
I'm convinced that this little website I started
as a hobby three years ago will achieve
greatness. |
