Tom Lawrence and I make it our business to speak up, not just on our own, but with many knowledgeable, passionate writers from throughout the area who use The Standard as a platform for getting important and relevant messages out to the people of South Dakota.  

We do this with a commitment to keeping our content free to our readers, without the oversight and pressures of political sponsorship or commercial advertisers.
