The Daily Journal is happy to host community conversations about news and life in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area. As hosts, we expect guests will show respect for each other. That means we don't threaten or defame each other, and we keep conversations free of personal attacks. Witty is great. Abusive is not. If you think a post violates these standards, don't escalate the situation. Instead, flag the comment to alert us. We'll take action if necessary. It's not hard. This should be a place where people want to read and contribute -- a place for spirited exchanges of opinion. So those who persist with racist, defamatory or abusive postings risk losing the privilege to post at all.

The Daily Journal's way to get you to read the whole paper is to bury parts of different subjects in different places.. great marketing concept..

Yeah. Pretty lame headline. This Saturday's edition of the FFDJ has more editorial/spelling/gramatical errors than it normally does. Ah, well...a 9 to 5, Monday-Friday newspaper probably has 9 to 5, Monday-Friday employees.
