Where the Dodge City Daily Globe on this ?

Dodge City Police Docket missing | Auction house tried to sell it

Why Not Dodge!!

No coverage at all yet in the 'local' paper... Thank goodness for the Hutchinson News coverage of actual news in Dodge City. And bonus -- they get all the AP credit nation wide.......

You know what? I'm f-ing sick of this "Hutch news is the only place to go for news," shite.

The people at the Globe work their asses off. They're understaffed, overworked. The Globe puts out local content every single f-ing day.

Yet, the Hutch has one story the local paper doens't and you guys are back on the "Oh, the globe doesn't have anything."

So the Hutch only has real news, huh?

How come they didn't have anything about the last tri-city meeting where the "no-driver's license" was discussed?

So, the death of the soldier that appeared in last week's Globe wasn't news? The story about the ethanol plant getting pushed back wasn't real news?

It's so trendy to give the Globe crap and elevate the Hutch News to god-like levels. If you people really do care about the this town, actually give your support to the paper.

Gee, don't attack the messenger | Question was valid

Some of the Associated Press Coverage
Lawrence Journal World
Topeka Capital-Journal
Kansas City Star
Arizona Daily Star
and Hays and Parsons and High Plains Journal and others.

Didn't say that Globe people aren't nice, or don't work hard, or don't ever cover local news, or don't take baths.

Still a valid question. Seems some little thing might have been worked in -- they use a lot of AP, they had the same information as the Hutch News started with -- perhaps you're suggesting that the news judgement of the papers above is weaker than the Globe's?

PS: KONQ Radio -- do be aware that this seems to have disappeared in late 1950s from Dodge City -- just didn't want to start a problem for any curator here in last few decades.

Having a bad day, Hockeychump??
The Globe has improved a lot over the past few months. The trend has been towards more local news, which is good. The police reports have improved. The jail bookings are now listed. And many features on local people, etc, have been added. There are still improvements that can be made, and things looked at to improve upon.

On the other hand, some things just don't get printed in our local paper, like they should. When it is the public's right to know, and other papers are printing the story; why is it not printed in the Globe? Well most of us know why, and we are not blaming everyone that works at the Globe!

I think the Globe has improved. Since there is only so much room in the paper for news they have to decide what's important and what's not. Hutch may decide something is more important than other things. Maybe Hutch doens't have enough things going on that they have to cover Dodge City also to fill up their paper...lol.

That's pretty much my take on ALL media outlets anymore. They continually pander to the lowest common denomiator to pay the bills and real journalistic integrity be damned.

If you want support in ANY venture, you EARN it. You don't complain, "nobody likes me! Why doesn't anyone like me?"

Oh LOOK over there is that the waaaaambulance?

Good points Wordy sans the waaaaaambulance comment. I think the Globe is working towards earning respect by their improvements. I believe if you give them quality input that they will sincerely try to improve based on your input.
