I challenge you, the readers of our publication to see the news that is going on all around you.

Kevin Johnson thanked his supporters on the corner of 5th and I Street 500 feet from the front door of our office.

Several weeks ago the entire Sacramento Federal Courthouse emptied out for a fire drill and marched across the street invading the local Starbucks and our parking lot.

The last Friday of every week all the air raid sirens positioned around Sacramento blare loudly at 11 A.M. Have you heard them? Did you ever ask why?

The picture above depicts all the construction going on at the Amtrak station, which is undergoing quite a transformation.

The Sacramento Press is a place for you to ask questions. It's a place for you to get answers. And most importantly it's a place where you can tell everyone.

A question that people frequently ask me is, what can I write for your paper? The simple answer is any local news.

What qualifies as local news? Just about everything.

Do you dislike the fact that your neighbors leave their trash cans out too long? Contact The Sacramento Press about who you can call to do something about it. Then write about what you found out.

That is news, and it's news that you can report on.

Just discovered you guys through FaceBook. I didn't even know what I was missing until I started reading your posts and thought: these guys have nodes hooked up to my head. Loved the redirect to SNR's story on the air raids. I was at City Suds -- I guess on a Friday -- and the billion decibal siren went off over our heads. We all just looked at each other dumbfounded in silence, giving each other the look: "is this where we stop, drop and roll?" My ears are still ringing.
