Save the Press-Telegram!

We are asking the community to rally to our cause, a cause that goes beyond the issues at the bargaining table. MediaNews needs to know our community needs us! It is our job as journalists to provide the citizens of Long Beach and the surrounding communities the Press-Telegram serves with news and information they need to make educated decisions about important issues that impact their daily lives. Cutting staff, eliminating sections and leaving beats uncovered for months is not the way to serve the best interests of the newspaper community, its advertisers or its employees.

We are collecting hundreds of resident signatures on our petition headlined "Don't destroy my Press-Telegram". Download the petition here.
