Guest speaker on Thursday's class

On Thursday we had a special guest speaker in our class, Dylan Smith editor of tucsonsentinel.com was in our class. He created this site because he wanted a local online paper. Dylan alongside a bunch of his co workers were laid off from the Tucson Citizen and decided to create this independent non profit news site. The site is up thanks to donations. According to Dylan 99 percent of the people that work for the site do not get paid, they have a second job or live from their savings. The site welcomes any new writers that would like to volunteer. For more information on how the site works and how you can get to write for them, please visit http://www.tucsonsentinel.com/
