Judge Comment:
A good newspaper that covers a wide range of topics and provides solid news coverage.
Competition Comment:
Great to see there is great work being done at newspapers across the country. Sad to see more and more uniformity in the chain papers, so that one newspaper in some chains is barely distinguishable from the others, and some of the chain papers seem to be focused on easy, predictable stories rather than cutting edge journalism.
