We have involved and good representatives in Rich County government, and they are better public servants because there are volunteer reporters for the Rich Civic Times who attend meetings and provide reports on actions taken and subjects discussed.
Attacks on the press, refusing to allow reporters who bring out unpopular (to the politicians) facts, to attend meetings and calling all reporters "enemies of the people" is one of the first tactics of governments who want to subvert our constitutional rights.The Rich Civic Times joins the Deseret News, the Salt Lake Tribune and thousands of newspapers all over the United States in warning that our freedom of the press relies on the citizens of the United States to protect that right.

Our free press is indeed needed but they should report the information in an unbiased manner unless it is an editorial. It's hard to find a major news outlet today that is not a propagandist for one of the partisan groups. It's hard to get the straight scoop.
You won’t get unbiased press with this publication either
Bobbie, I am unwilling to show support of any kind for a small newsletter such as this that has now entered the political arena with such an obviously one-sided viewpoint. This is something about which you feel strongly and I certainly respect you for that. Please also respect my decision to no longer receive the RCTNews. Karen Smith
