Know your LPJ: How to read the best news of your day

By Kyle Roberts

As we recently celebrated our three-year anniversary, I’m proud to say that the Lincoln Parish Journal has published over 14,000 stories since its 2021 launch.

Let me say that again: 14,000 stories.

These are columns, news, sports, features, your own stories — you name it! And in this age of modern technology, you have a few options for how you can read the Lincoln Parish Journal completely free of charge and start you day with the most up-to-date news.

Here’s how!

Our website: We have an awesome landing page at www.Lincolnparishjournal.com that easily lets you see the stories that are available to you on a particular day. Starting with the very top news of the day, you can work your way to the bottom of any given day, which is always our “Notice of Death.” Simply click on the stories that matter the most to you and read away.

Facebook: We thankfully are able to cross-post our stories from our website to Facebook. So if you’re an early riser, these will appear in your social media feed. A quick note: sometimes Facebook’s algorithms will get prickly — so not every story will appear on Facebook. Even so, we are proud to have surpassed the 10,000 followers mark in the month of July!

And, our personal favorite — the daily email: What better way to enjoy your 6:55 a.m. cup of coffee than by having the news digitally delivered right to your inbox. Simply click here if you have not signed up already and input your name and email. We will never do anything with your email address outside of send you the news every weekday morning and any breaking news that you’ll need to know about.

Once again, we are incredibly thankful and honored to be able to bring the news to you, completely for free. We look forward to many more years of offering this service to our amazing community.
