Today, I discovered the New Mexico Political Journal. It is a well-written website which provides actual news with facts. It is the site to go to in order to find out what's really going on in New Mexico.
The primary purpose of New Mexico Political Journal is to educate the people of New Mexico at large and the electorate in particular regarding the history, demography, and culture of New Mexico, as well as its electoral and political landscape.
As our motto states, we desire to provide Intelligent Political Discourse—for the Thoughtful New Mexican.
The principal objective in striving to achieve this goal is to bring about civic betterment and social improvements. NMPJ seeks to enlighten and inform the citizenry through an educational process that instructs the public on subjects beneficial to to the community, both as an electorate and as citizens in general. The method includes full and fair exposition of pertinent facts sufficient to permit an individual or the public to form an independent opinion or conclusion
We offer news and analysis of New Mexico government and politics, as well as national news. But we do so from a unique approach, not found in other media in our state, or most states—that is, we utilize critical and analytical thinking and logic to communicate the news of the day.
While most modern journalism is based on the journalist himself or herself, we focus on the actual person or event that is being covered.
Rather than preparing what we want to say in advance of a newsmaker's response, we actually listen to the newsmaker, or read his or her actual words and key off those, without preconceived notions of what our next question or statement will be. We are the listener and analyst. The political leader or newsmaker is the subject, not us. We believe the obviously simple—but continually overlooked—axiom that "words mean things."Check it out!
