Mason County Press Lashes Out At Local Radio Stations For Stealing News - The Ludington Torch2024-03-28T19:46:59Zhttp://ludingtoncitizen.ning.com/forum/topics/mason-county-press-lashes-out-at-local-radio-stations-for-stealin?commentId=4689834%3AComment%3A340248&xg_source=activity&feed=yes&xn_auth=noFrom observations, it appears…tag:ludingtoncitizen.ning.com,2017-06-15:4689834:Comment:3459512017-06-15T21:21:33.982ZXLFDhttp://ludingtoncitizen.ning.com/profile/TheLudingtonCitizen
<p>From observations, it appears that the Synergy Groups news is still being produced without noticeable reductions, but done so without borrowing news coverage and photos from Always' operations. </p>
<p>Frankly, it seems just as good if not better. I often see Steve Ruba down covering the Relay for Life events, I'll see whether I can sneak some inside baseball info from him next weekend.</p>

<p>What ever became of this? Did Mason County Press have the sheriff investigate? After all of the rants, the chatter really died down quick. Any updates?</p>

<p>Alway and the MCP are in business just to be in business. Alway deliberately keeps a wide berth when it comes to the truly important issues just as the LDN does. The only concern the MCP and LDN have is to raise money to pay their salaries, they couldn't care less about what's really ailing Mason County and Ludington. I compare them to the politicians in Washington whose only goal is to continue their own existence and they will do what ever it takes to to accomplish that goal. X summed it…</p>

The MCP waited a few days and today reported that very fact without even citing their source. That bumpkin stole the news I thieved from the Nashville Route 66 Business District. </p>
