LETTER from MONICA CALZOLARI

In Crisis, Your Newspapers

Are Rising To The Challenge

To the Editor:

I read your April 2-3 print edition cover to cover and I learned a lot of valuable information I have not seen reported anywhere else. The service you provide to our community is vital!

I know that the newspaper industry has been struggling financially for over a decade.

I am so impressed that you were proactive and built a following on www.AllOTSEGO.com that attracts 8,000-9,000 views per day.

I hope your advertisers realize the incredible reach of your multiple media channels and support your small business by “buying local’ from you.

Restaurants are not the only small businesses that need our support before, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Hometown Oneonta and The Freeman’s Journal are helping many small businesses weather this storm with fantastic coverage of individuals paying it forward and
organizations being creative and innovative.

Let us know what we can do to make sure you stay in business too.

MONICA CALZOLARI
