Good post, but it's a pipe dream, Tyrone.  The Alaska Dispatch- owned by East Coast Leftist Millionaire Alice Rubenstein (Rogoff)- would never allow for it.  She overtly endorses Obama and has hosted him at one of her many homes.  Her paper's composition is half Leftist Washington Post, half Leftist New York Times, with some Alaska writers thrown in to keep things fun and seemingly "local."

Her recently-published New Year's note to readers in the Dispatch had such a patronizingly paternalistic feel to it, the Dispatch had to bar any and all comments from being made about it, because so many readers couldn't stomach her Leftist hubris and self-aggrandizement.
