Good, yes, 100% in support of this!

Just wondering how this could work

A town in colorado just voted to do just that

and a town in Massachusetts did it last year 

Turns out when these local governments do it it ends up being cheaper for everyone, and they often offer cell service too (The Massachusetts town had cell service for 10$ and internet for 25-45 depending on speed. Most residents had a 40% drop in cost)

“I didn’t start publishing Pennsylvania’s Orange Street News so that people would think I’m cute. I want to get the truth to people, even if it makes grownups mad,” says 9-year-old Hilde Kate Lysiak, publisher of and reporter for the Orange Street News.

After reporting on a suspected homicide in Selinsgrove, Pa., Hilde was harassed by “disgusted” adults commenting on her site, saying her time would be better spent at tea parties and playing with dolls. 

Hilde has something to say, and she takes no prisoners, firing back at her aging critics, with a video and in her column for the Guardian. 

how pathetic do you have to be to pick on a literal nine year old

hired.

She reported this homicide before MAJOR NEWS OUTLETS had even heard of it.
She’s tenacious and strong.

Godspeed Hilde

Adults complain about our generation not doing anything, and then they tell young kids that they shouldn’t be doing great things

Yes babygirl 🙌🏽

I expect to see her on a major news outlet one day. 

Keep her safe!
