York Sunday News columns
Some of my yorktownsquare.com posts end up in the York Sunday News’ Viewpoints section. Others become York Daily Record/Sunday News editorials.
It’s call repurposing content, and their appearance in the newspaper is an example of digital-first, print-later journalistic thinking.
Here are a sampling of blog posts, with additional content and rewriting, that became columns:
- Hex Murder a spooky bit of York County’s past.
- Covering the storm, Hurricane Sandy.
- Red Lion, Pa.: When bad things happen to good towns
- On the (non-Mafia) Amish and megachurches
- If we value our York County heritage, we’ll save buildings



Welcome to York Town Square, 8 years of daily posts about journalism and history, topics that can easily become plodding and self important. My goal is to keep this blog fun and accessible. And I try to say something in each post. I welcome your comments and respond to every one you write. Please contact me at
