Declaration of Principles

I promise to provide the people of Sierra Madre with an online news magazine that will tell the truth honestly, and provide a fighting and tireless champion of their rights as residents. I promise to publish the “news you can use” and “the truth and nothing but the truth.” I promise to write it simply, concisely and entertainingly. I promise to welcome controversy and encourage debate. I promise to offer analysis and opinion on important topics, including opposing views.  I also promise to publish “Breaking Stories” as they occur to update residents about news needing their immediate attention. In short, I promise to make the Sierra Madre Eagle the outspoken advocate of our community, a source of news and entertaining commentary, and the ceaseless watchdog of local government.
