Eastern Oregon's leading newspaper, published in print Tuesday through Saturday, and updated online every day and as breaking news happens. A healthy democracy depends on independent journalists to shine a light on our governments and communities. Locally-owned newspapers like the East Oregonian receive no government subsidies or grants. They depend entirely on support from advertisers and subscribers. The strongest communities have strong newspapers where everyone has a voice. Whether you want to celebrate something positive that is happening or criticize the way things are going in your town, a letter to the editor is a great way to share your opinion with thousands of local people and start conversations that may lead to positive change.
