Letter to the Editor

Reader grateful for Times-Tribune


With so many of our rights trying to be taken away from local, state, or even our federal government, the Corbin Times-Tribune prints issues on every subject that we as Americans face each day. Our Corbin Times-Tribune keeps us updated on a daily basis — local, community, or world events — on the web or in print.

I have heard some people say, “I never knew there was a meeting. If I had known, I would have been there.”

I, myself, have had many editorials printed, some negative, some positive, but they were printed!

Some may feel The Times-Tribune is wasting time printing some trivial articles in the paper. You are keeping us informed daily, no matter how big or small the issue.

Each day I receive calls asking about what is the latest news. Some of us are home 24-7 (doctor’s orders). We must realize some people cannot read, but they (we) do have voice.

As least we do not forget the extra services you give us year- round, often times at your own expense — most recently, the video to our American heroes that cannot be with us this holiday season.

You give us our most important issue, our First Amendment, freedom of speech.

I wish every one of you and your families at the Times-Tribune from the top to the bottom (editors, printers, janitors, etc.) a very Merry Christmas and a very healthy and prosperous New Year! Without you, we would have no Corbin Times-Tribune.
