The Keene Sentinel has led the way in local news reporting for 225 years. Alan Rumrill will share the story of the Sentinel’s history, as well as the story of the newspapers that preceded the Sentinel in Keene and the numerous local newspapers that competed with and worked alongside the Sentinel over the decades. He will also explain how the focus and process of local news reporting has changed since the late 18th century.
