The Greeley Tribune Wants YOU to Pick Their Front Page Stories

The Greeley Tribune is tossing the reins of their newspaper over to the chaos of the internet… sort of.

We report. You pick the news.

Help the Tribune reflect your interests. Each day from noon to 5 p.m., Tribune editors will list the top stories being considered for tomorrow’s front page. You tell us which ones should make the cut.

One poll focuses on our local stories. The second poll highlights the top national and international stories of the day. Vote for one on each poll. Use the comment feature to elaborate, to lobby fellow readers or to discuss the news. If a story on your mind is not on our list, please tell us about it.

To vote, go to https://www.greeleytr….

So I thought I would try an experiment.  For the next week or so, I’ll post the story titles that are in the running.  Then I’ll follow up with a post that says which story won, and whether it was indeed on the front page.

Could be boring, could be fun, either way everyone should do their civic duty and VOTE.

You can review today’s options after the jump.  The polls close at 5:00.
