You are most probably right, it's just the effect is the same unwanted de-facto monopoly on communications... so what's then there to do???

- bell-cot 3y agoFrom "forestry service", I'll guess they're under state or federal authority, so "just be a squeaky wheel in local politics" is not an option. Sadly, this is something that needs reliable, local news coverage. Doesn't much matter if that's a "for profit" newspaper magically transported from the Good Old Days of local journalism...or ongoing, ~thankless work in the trenches by a person or few with the skills to set up and run some flavor of local news web site (which could be very niche - say, forestry service stuff, parks & rec news, road closures & construction, etc.).
