Strong communities rely on strong local news and information. That’s why South King Media and The B-Town Blog is proud to be a Founding Partner of Local News Day.
Launching nationwide on April 9, 2026, Local News Day is a coordinated effort to reconnect people with the trusted local news outlets that help communities stay informed, prepared and engaged. News organizations, community leaders and supporters across the country will come together for this day of action to highlight the vital role local journalism plays in everyday life.
For nearly two decades, South King Media has been committed to covering the stories that matter most to residents of South King County, including Burien, Des Moines, SeaTac, Tukwila, Kent, Auburn, White Center and Normandy Park. From city council decisions and public safety updates to community events, arts and local voices, our mission has always been rooted in serving our neighbors with accurate, timely and relevant news.
Local News Day is a reminder that access to reliable local information is essential for a healthy community. It helps residents make informed decisions, strengthens civic engagement and ensures accountability at every level of government.
We invite our readers, partners and community members to join us on April 9 in celebrating and supporting local journalism. Whether it is reading, sharing, donating, subscribing or simply spreading the word, every action helps sustain the local news that keeps South King County connected.
Thanks in advance for whatever you can afford to help:
“Thank you for being part of our community and for supporting local news!”
