Citrus County Chronicle — Local services in Inverness

For quite some time I have read the Citrus County Florida Chronicle. In many cases I have enjoyed it and appreciated the information within.

However, every time I have observed and reported an error in the paper no matter the topic or section, I never receive a reply or even a thank you for pointing it out. In most cases the error is never corrected. So much for quality and accuracy, or even a thank you.

In the last week (09.14 - 21.25) I contacted the Editor Jim Gouvellis regarding issues with the sports department not replying to emails and not correcting my observations within the "On the Airwaves" section.

Now, what am I going to do with a newspaper tube if I decide I don't want their paper? Planter? Food storage bin? Bird feeder? Or maybe I'll pass it onto my children in my will. If you think I'm going to allow you to put up a tube with your name plastered on the side of it, where you get FREE advertising by every car that drives by my home and PAY you for the privilege, you are mistaken, so I immediately cancelled my subscription. With the decline in newspaper sales and the closing of many print publications you would think a newspaper wouldn't cut off its nose to...

I've been reading the Citrus County Chronicle for as long as I can remember, and it's always been a part of my daily routine. It's more than just a newspaper, it's a connection to my community. I really appreciate how they cover the stories that matter to everyday people here, not just the big headlines, but the little things that make our beautiful county feel like home. I’m grateful to have a local news source that still values the community it serves. The Citrus County Chronicle is a solid local media company that does a good job covering the news that matters to our community. I appreciate their focus on local events, government updates, and community stories, things you won’t find in bigger papers. Thank you, Citrus...
