The Leader was founded 22 years ago today, on March 4, 1987. Much has changed in the last two decades, from the political landscape to the faltering economy, but The Leader remains committed to bringing you local news, sports and commentary that you won’t find anywhere else.
While daily newspapers are shutting down across the country or cutting back the days they publish, we at The Leader are convinced there’s a role for our kind of award-winning community journalism.
You don’t have to pay $150 a year to subscribe to The Leader. Instead, for the cost of a trip to McDonald’s, you get reporting that covers your local government, schools and their teams and tries to keep politicians honest. Because if we don’t keep a wary eye on them, who will?
We cover Metroplan, the Highway Department, future water supply, schools plans, fascinating people, police reports and more.
We bring you the Leader All-Stars twice a week: John Hofheimer, Joan McCoy, Nancy Dockter, Rick Kron, Eric Francis, Ernie Dumas, Jeffrey Smith, as well as Kelly Fenton and Jason King in sports.
Garrick Feldman still writes a column when he gets mad enough.
There’s more: Spotlight on Education highlights achievers in our local schools.
Also advertising specials from local businesses, valuable coupons, car deals, real estate values and more.
