About
The Observer-Examiner
Our Vision:
- Well informed readers who know what they think and believe and why they think and believe what they do!
Our Mission:
- To observe the events of our times and examine the underlying related social, economic, religious, and political currents.
- To provide resources for analysis and review in order that the reader may better understand the events of our times.
- To chart an alternate course of direction when applicable through reasoned and balanced Editorial Comment.
Editor’s Note: We offer our sincere thanks and expressions of deep respect to those writers, news agencies, and news media whose materials we have borrowed and present here in the spirit of the original and historical Time Magazine. It is not our intent to claim for ourselves originality of the material used. Therefore we provide complete source identity and (as we learn to use Word Press better) we will also provide complete link-backs to the original sources. Our intent is to feature news articles, opinion, and information that we believe will benefit the reader to become a better informed citizen and community participant. We also believe that the sources and materials we present here offer a viewpoint, focused information, or say something of significance and perhaps even of historical value thereby adding to the general knowledge base.
When presenting original Observer-Examiner material, We make every effort Not to mix editorial comment with our journalistic reporting efforts—this to the best of our ability—in keeping with best journalistic practices. It is our belief that personal opinion should be limited to the Editorial Page and not in our reporting as a matter of reader trust and our personal integrity.
Finally, our “slant” is that of a more conservative world view, but we make every effort to present a balanced look and examination of the news, the events of our times, and the issues that impact us daily and potentially historically as well.
