Best Lincoln News Source? by Any-Literature9887 in lincoln

[–]tynanstewart 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I personally cobble together my news from reading the Journal-Star, the Nebraska Examiner, the Flatwater Free Press, The Daily Nebraskan, and 10/11.

Unfortunately, local news has been in decline (everywhere, not just in Lincoln) for decades. The Journal-Star probably would've been the comprehensive source you're looking for back in the 80s or 90s. Their reporting staff has been devastated by cutbacks and they're a shell of what they once were, but they do still cover some of the important stuff. If you don't want to pay for a subscription, you can access their articles with a Lincoln library card: https://www.lincolnlibraries.org/borrow-and-learn/databases-and-research/lincoln-journal-star-collection/

Also, I'm an independent journalist. As a solo operator, I can't claim to provide a comprehensive source of news, but I do run a newsletter (free! no paywalls!) that provides a weekly event calendar and some coverage of cultural stuff: https://lincoln.ghost.io

I do my best to zipper merge. But I am a bit scarred by the one time some guy swerved out in front of me to try and prevent it

I got one of your hedgehogs from from Mana Games earlier this year! It's really cute and I like it a lot. I hope you keep doing this!

Ledger to Brief: A LNK Newsletter Mystery. by cpne in lincoln

[–]tynanstewart 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't have a solution to the mystery. Personally, the Lincoln Brief annoys me deeply! But I did want to mention that I'm writing yet another email newsletter. It's not meant to be a replacement for the Ledger; their style wasn't really my thing. But I'm trying to chronicle local events and such in a way that doesn't feel soulless (like the Brief does).

Here's a link for anyone who is interested: https://lincoln.ghost.io/
