Thank you for the comment. Actually it's just content partnerships with sister publications under the same umbrella. No agenda. The articles should have balance between negative and positive news. If you notice that it's not the case, please let us know.

Sometimes it might seem that there is a lot of certain topic because the contributors publish several articles under the same category, and the homepage layout, which doesn't separate content in different categories. Local news should always appear on top, regardless.

Also, if a topic is not of interest, you are more than welcome to leave it unread, or contribute more interesting topics.
