Newspaper destroyed in Kansas tornado keeps reporting

Steve Safran May 7th, 2007

Its offices are gone, but the Kiowa County Signal is still covering the news of the tornado that devastated Greensburg, Kansas. The Signal is small - it’s a weekly whose editor, Mark Anderson, is also its lone reporter. Anderson has been posting news to the web and has been getting help from a sister publication, the Pratt Tribune, since the tornado hit on Friday. He is also blogging news items. Anderson told E&P “I have been devastated by what I have seen, and am wondering if I still have a job… but knowing so many (residents of Greensburg) I feel like I owe it to them to try to give them perspective.”
