THE RAPID CITY JOURNAL HAS FAILED TO LIST ANY GLBT ORGANIZATIONS IN IT'S "OUR TOWNS" PUBLICATION.
SEVERAL WEEKS AGO I SENT INFORMATION REGARDING THE CENTER WEST AND THE VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS THAT MEET HERE TO THE RAPID CITY JOURNAL FOR INCLUSION IN ITS "OUR TOWNS' SPECIAL ADDITION TO THE JOURNAL. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD BE INCLUDED. WHEN I RECEIVED IT LAST WEEK, NOTHING FROM THE GLBT COMMUNITY WAS INCLUDED IN THE PUBLICATION.
THERE WERE MANY OTHER COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, CLUBS AND RESOURCES INCLUDED BUT NOTHING FROM THE GLBT COMMUNITY.
IN ADDITION TO THIS OMISSION, THE JOURNAL WAS NOTIFIED BY THE CENTER WEST AND THE COLIN HIGGINS FOUNDATION ABOUT RYAN BOWKER'S COURAGE AWARD. THEY EVEN DID A PHONE INTERVIEW AND SENT A PHOTOGRAPHER. BUT TO DATE NOTHING HAS BEEN PUBLISHED.
THE RAPID CITY WEEKLY & KOTA TELEVISION HAVE ALREADY DONE VERY GOOD STORIES. NATIONAL NATIVE NEWS IS SCHEDULING AN INTERVIEW. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE JOURNAL? IS IT TIME FOR THE GLBT COMMUNITY TO STOP SUPPORTING THE JOURNAL WITH OUR SUBSCRIPTIONS? WE SPEAK WITH OUR DOLLARS!
