Commerce City Sentinel Express: In the digital age, where information moves at a much quicker pace, the press is now everywhere and working to get articles out to readers. Journalists’ loyalties almost always lie with citizens, and their first obligation is to share the truth, according to two of nine American Press Association’s principles of journalism. 

As stated in a chapter by David Croteau and William Hoynes in Principles of American Journalism, the “media are the primary suppliers of informing citizens both about current events and long-standing issues. They inform both individual decision making, and equally important, public deliberation.”

During La Ciudad’s reporting for Commerce City and beyond, the top questions we hear from residents and those who are interested in participating in press coverage are “Who are you?” and “When will this article be published?”
