NEWS-JOURNAL
Woodsboro/Walkersville
The Woodsboro-Walkersville News-Journal will be supported by both sponsors and advertisers, taking on a "National Public Radio-style" approach to funding. Like any paper, advertising will play a pivotal role, but not at the expense of the development of good quality content. The development of a sponsor-based paper will help support an endowment fund allowing the paper to continue being published with the highest quality content. Even in the harshest of economic conditions this paper will continue to be a top priority for all of us. All contributions are welcomed.

Our Mission
We invite correspondence from everywhere; we offer opportunities for all to give expression to their thoughts, in the way of original articles, of proper length, and whose substance may be adapted to our volumes. We shall keep a steady hold upon the helm, but at the same time extend general invitation to those who regard with favor our undertaking, to lay hold of the oars and help us bring our endeavor into the haven of kind approbation.
In our advertising columns many businesses will find room for observing the practical results of the political economy, how supply follows demand and its converse, how one resorts to plenty, and that this last must be manifested, before it will be sought after. In a word, in order to sell effectively, there needs to be a publication of the articles to be sold, what they are, in the inducements which should attract customers, and finally that judicious outlay to enhance profits, will bring better results, devoid of the action, which modern modes of business make indispensably necessary.
How to Submit an Article
Due to space limitations, all news stories are subject to abridgment and the determination of relevance by the Editor. Because of the volume of news stories we receive, we cannot respond to articles not used. We will not publish hand written and/or unsigned news stories. The Woodsboro/Walkersville News-Journal will not published news stories it considers pejorative.
Become a Sponsor
The News-Journal is deeply grateful for the generous financial contributions made to date by members of the community, which have enabled us to provide a balanced and in-depth coverage of the News, History, Culture, and Events of the greater Waslkersville/Woodsboro community. While the classical newspaper business model calls for a paper to be supported by its advertisers and subscribers, truth be told, there just isn't the advertising base to support a good community paper, and the cost of setting up an accounting system to track subscribers is cost prohibitive. No contribution is too small. To paraphrase a seasoned politician, a few dollars here, and a few dollars there, and pretty soon you’re talking real money.
