Salem-News.com Covers the Stories that Count!

(ALBANY) - Salem-News.com has been online since 2004.

Welcome to the most unique and interesting news group in the nation. Salem-News.com is also the first exclusively Web news organization in the world. Not a blog, but a full service multimedia news site staffed by award-winning professional journalists and a wealth of diverse writers from all over the world. In addition to having writers in scores of U.S. states, we are also based in Argentina, Australia, Bahrain, Cambodia, Canada, Egypt, Germany, Great Britain, India, Iran, Ireland, Japan, Lebanon, Mexico, Denmark, Palestine, (West Bank and Gaza) Russian Federation, Spain, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Uganda and Vietnam.

Salem-News.com was created as a present and future answer for the needs of a wide range of news consumers in Oregon, across the nation and around the world.

Salem, Oregon is one of many locations in the U.S. of 250k or more, that are not adequately supported by a local television market. We see the 'New Media' revolution as an opportunity to bring more news to these areas and also as a venue for emerging and veteran journalists, and we want it to be more than just an extension of the existing overly commercial mainstream news market.

Our goal is to provide news and information that is honest and up to the minute, without compromising a strong moral and ethical code that we believe should guide all journalists.

Salem-News.com does not charge visitors a fee to view the our stories after they are a few days old, unlike the majority of daily newspaper Websites. We do not allow pop-up advertising or any other similar invasive practice. Everything we publish is on the Web forever and logged by Google as well as Salem-News.com.
