But the most important one of all is to make yourself happy. Newspapers exist because you want them to. In keeping with this responsibility, The Sundial newspaper strives to keep its reporting accurate, objective, and, above all else, fair. Newspapers are around to tell the stories of societies. Newspapers may just outlive roaches.
Journalists are essentially public servants like librarians, the police and laundry attendants.
Vietnam, the segregation of public school buses and, of course, Watergate, were positively changed by newspapers. This is an open invitation to use this newspaper as a realistic soundboard for sadness, pleasure, ecstasy, gripes, etc. Frequently, people choose to not speak out because they fear other voices carry more weight than theirs. A newspaper equalizes this by giving everyone who can scratch the alphabet onto paper a very public arena to share their ideas. The Sundial can t promise to please you all the time.
