As a long time advertiser with The Newport Daily News, I eagerly look forward to each issue, notjust to check ad placement but also because I genuinely admire the publication as a rare exampleof journalistic quality while the newspaper business in general is having a hard time surviving.They make sure the important hard news from the wire service is in the front section, and thelocal coverage is thorough and engaging. I especially appreciate the photos and stories featuringathletes from our local schools- the professionalism of this coverage is an enormous service toour community.
