I agree that
Copley Press should "sell only to a buyer who will uphold the standards
of quality journalism and its importance to a strong community."

Without
the Repository, where would we get our news? This means local governments,
sports, school issues, businesses. Also, what about newsworthy articles
about people in our surrounding
communities? All these items are important to me, and a lot of other
people believe in this newspaper, too.
We need to know that there is a news source we can still count on ALL
THE TIME, whether the news is good or bad.
PLEASE KEEP THIS NEWSPAPER ROLLING OFF THE PRESSES FOR A LONG TIME TO
COME!!

"My
father worked 42 years at The Repository as a printer and was a proud
member of the union.
I lived through the strikes and the buyouts.
"The Repository has started with the buyouts and, hopefully, they
will keep enough staff to maintain a quality newspaper. The bottom line
for any
new owner will be profit.
"Hopefully, the new owner and workers will be creative together
to be profitable and maintain quality journalism and community coverage."
