Delta leaders mull CREATE-ive newspapering
Civic leaders gathered in Robinsonville at one of the quarter boats for the annual Delta Development meeting to discuss strategy for the upcoming legislative session. One topic on the agenda was community foundations and charitable giving by the non-profit CREATE group, to which the Daily Journal was gifted by its publisher and CREATE founder George McLean many years ago.
Tom Pittman of the Community Foundation of Northwest Mississippi and owner of the DeSoto Times also spoke to the flock. Pittman himself is an alum of the Daily Journal.
