| What you are reading is, I hope, the beginning of a new voice. |
| Jackson needs another voice. Read our philosophy and mission below. |
| This is an experiment in alternative journalism. It's to be progressive, and in many respects it will harken back to the Progressive Movement of a hundred years ago. At the moment, this publication is a hobby. |
| It will be exclusively published on the Worldwide Web. |
| The only advertising will be classified ads.This isn't intended as a commercial site, but it would be nice to pay the expenses, which are now coming out of my pocket. It would also be nice to have money to pay writers. [6/18/99 Ed: The JP has joined joined Link Exchange, which, I suppose is a form of advertising, but it provides an opportunity for similar websites to advertise their existence on other sites without cost.] |
| Comments, articles, and letters are invited. Send them to editor@jacksonprogressive.com. Please do not attempt to reach me by telephone. I work at a full-time job and simply cannot return calls. No exceptions. If you must talk, send me an email (with your phone number) explaining why you feel that a phone conversation is necessary, and I'll call you. |
