Dear Editor: Fortunate for Ledger

Dear Editor,

Last Wednesday night the PBS News Hour covered a story on the decline of weekly newspapers due in part to the switch by advertisers to the internet. The result, in many cases, was a breakdown in connection within the communities which the reporters felt has contributed to the polarization from which our political processes currently suffers.

It made me realize how fortunate our area is that the Whitehall Ledger continues to be published.
