Any outlet could have covered George Santos' corruption before he ended up getting elected and indicted, but only one did: The North Shore Leader on Long Island.

Local news matters.

It's worth noting that when folks at NY Newsday were asked why they didnt uncover it, one of their staff members said (where people could read it.) "When's the last time you paid for a news article?", essentially saying that they werent being paid enough to investigate.

Interesting since a lot of people that would need to read it cannot afford to pay by the article or for every newspaper.

Local independent news matters. Good on the North Shore Leader for doing actual journalism while the big corporate news media was hyping up a non-existent "red wave".
