Rome Sentinel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rome Sentinel[1][2] is a family-owned[1] upstate New York newspaper[1] that, for generations, has been sourcing national and international news via cooperation with competitors.[3][4] In the late 1940s they founded a local radio station, WRUN[5][6][7][8]

History[]

The newspaper's roots in the early 1800s included use of the names Rome Telegraph,[9] and Democratic Sentinel, (with the same publisher). The paper did not become Rome Sentinel (including Rome Weekly Sentinel and Rome Daily Sentinel) [10][11][3] until 1840. Their coverage[3] includes topics such as nuclear weapons,[12] and The New York Times cited their "Deep, Dignified and Effective" article,[13] among others. [14][15] Their editorials drew comments from competitors,[16] who at times cite some of their scoops,[5][17] some of which are distributed by Associated Press.[18]
