I think local newspeople (perhaps all Olympic Peninsula papers) shy away from controversial issues.

Sometimes articles show up on newspaper web sites, but never on Facebook.

This leaves more space for high school sports scores, news of festivals, etc.

The PT Leader has made their commenting protocols complicated- then more complicated in recent years.

Often- you will read more rules about commenting than actual comments posted.
Investigative stories are rare.
