Last week an incident occurred that pointed to a need to modify the newspaper’s online policies and better service the Lake Martin community.

Doug and Wilma Sasser, a couple in their 80s, went missing. We wrote a story about the missing couple and printed it across the top of the Thursday front page, including their description and a photo in the story. The Friday Outlook contained the welcome news that the Sassers been found in good spirits after spending 48 hours stranded in their car on a remote road. We reported that news the same way this newspaper has for the vast majority of its 117 years of existence – in print.
