We need to stay informed about the local news that impacts our lives inBend and CO. Need to stay up to date on sheriff and police issues, parking, housing and what the city councils and county commissions are doing

Oakley Taylor

We need all the help to fight fires in our precious state since the feds have cut our funding. This is not a “liberal” or “conservative “ issue. It’s a quality of life issue and the preservation of our communities and the forest that we treasure.

but it doesn't need to be a print version. online is just as good.

Yes we need to stay informed but not by a liberal newspaper

Douglas Kaufman

I imagine your idea of a “great” newspaper, would be Pravda or some MAGA run rag, right? (All the Conservative obfuscation, all of the time!) Why you think the Bulletin is a “Liberal” publication, I just don’t get. Now, “The Source”, THAT’S definitely a Liberal rag. (And they’re very good at it!)

Oakley Taylor

Please don’t make this a political division. Let’s be civil and acknowledge all that we have in common; the quality of life in our community.

I have always loved JUST getting the Sunday paper with the Parade magazine and the extras; however, I cancelled my subscription a couple of years ago. I have NEVER had a need or a desire for a DAILY paper.

At the cost to whom?

Do you spend more hours a week watching traditional entertainment or user generated content?

Way more time on new media.

Switched to YouTube from Cable like it so much better because of what we normally watch is programmed for us.

I'd say it's like 60/40 in favor of things like user generated content, but it has more to do with time than anything else. Due to things like work and chores, I just don't have time during the day for movies/TV. But for a few hours in the evening, I tend to watch more movies/TV, which I prefer.

Andrew Cozzini

This is one of those where I'm voting the honest truth, even though I'd prefer it be the other (while still making time for Geekvolution, of course). I think it's because of how casually I can spend hours on YouTube, as opposed to being intentional about catching up on content I intend to consume.
