Your Tuesday evening update on Salem news

Salem Reporter logo

Good evening….

The national media seems to be on full alert for the potential arrest of former President Donald Trump. You can read endlessly about possible charges and how New York processes those arrested and what this means for the 2024 presidential race – on other sites.

Here at Salem Reporter, we’re more concerned with who’s running for school board and what small business is the latest to get hit by burglars.

We’re curious, though, how our readers are engaging in this “arrest watch.” Are you paying attention to this coverage? What interests you about it? Or concerns you? We find our readers often have interesting observations about such developments. Share yours in an email to Editor Les Zaitz ([email protected]). If enough speak up, we’ll share.

But meantime, there is one certainty in the news – a wet week ahead. The National Weather Service is forecasting days of showers and just plain rain – up to a quarter inch just on Thursday.

Let’s get you caught up on local news from your professional team at Salem Reporter:
