We are excited to announce the newest addition to The Sacramento Press team – Jared Goyette. Jared is the fourth editor in chief The Sacramento Press has had since it launched in 2008. For the past three years Jared was the online producer for The Miami Herald, writing headlines, selecting the front page stories, editing images and managing social media accounts.

I had no idea you felt that way. That would be more on Casey than on Jared, but I'll fill him in anyway.

Might I suggest you also add a button for "this is blatant advertising / PR nonsense" which creeps in from time to time.

We wish you well. As you become more familiar with our area and see the need for a reliable, trustworthy source of information, less biased then The Sacramento Bee, we look forward to seeing how you operate. We need a moderate, non-extreme source of the local and national news. We hope SacPress is it. perspicacity 2012-04-24T16:49:06Z P W comment-66915 2012-04-24T13:14:19Z 2012-04-24T13:14:19Z Let bbbmer back in! He's paid his debt to society!

You sound like a perfect fit for SacPress.

Our community manager asked for them not to be posted anymore. So no need for a filter! (This was already done sometime ago, but I just found out. I'm still getting my bearings here). What I wrote before about filtering still applies: -- We rely on community input, via comments and the thumbs up/thumbs down option, to decide which stories should be featured, so you can actually help us in the filtering process.

If you check the author references I made above, my personal feelings on ghost stories should be clear. I won't be writing or editing any, but contributors may choose to do so.
