The Ithaca Community News is a semi-monthly email newsletter and web site founded by former local resident and activist Paul Glover. He had over 7,900 subscribers, not including website readers, which represented roughly a quarter of the population of Ithaca, NY. Many subscribers were from other parts of the country and world. In November 2005, Elizabeth Bauchner took over the publication. Soon after she changed her name back to Elizabeth Field.
Ithaca Community News covered local political issues, as well as race, class, social justice, gender, anti-war activism and environmental sustainability. Elizabeth stopped publishing in February 2007 due to financial strains. The web site and email newsletters are archived at the link below.
Famous quotes containing the words community and/or news:
“Every community is an association of some kind and every community is established with a view to some good; for everyone always acts in order to obtain that which they think good. But, if all communities aim at some good, the state or political community, which is the highest of all, and which embraces all the rest, aims at good in a greater degree than any other, and at the highest good.”
—Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
“Although I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given to me to bring to the Gentiles the news of the boundless riches of Christ...”
—Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 3:8.
