Sure social media has its place; however, if you want creditable content, support your local newspaper. For Koondrook Barham, the local newspaper is the Koondrook Barham Bridge. Independent since 1909, the Bridge reports on local news and sport.
I have the privilege to work at the Koondrook Barham Bridge as a sports journalist and can always be found at a local sporting event in the area on weekends.
Because the Bridge is both print and digital forms cover many age demographics and people who are digitally savvy to people who like to get newsprint on their fingers, the best of both worlds.
Local newspapers stay afloat by people purchasing the paper print version or subscription, advertisements and classified notices. Always support your local newspaper over the social media duopoly (Twitter and Facebook/Instagram).
