La Prensa

You want a picture of a parade in your neighborhood? You read your local paper. You want to know what’s doing at the new restaurant? And how about at the high school? You read your local newspaper.

It makes sense and that’s what this report says. While national papers are looking at the edge of the cliff and wondering how much time they have, local newspapers are hanging on in places long forgotten by the large newspapers.

And that’s why I put the picture of La Prensa here. There are a lot reasons why I like this paper. But one is that they have their own videos and a neat use of updated photos. Brilliante!

We have to talk more about videos as salvation.
