The "Argus" forfeited any claim to being a SD newspaper when it chose to close its South Dakota offices, fled the jurisdiction, and publishes out of state. The corporate travesty of their decimation of local journalism is a pox upon the once independent Aberdeen American News, the Argus, and many other dailies, and weeklies - and their once local broadcasting brethren.

Thank heavens that we have the Dakota Scout. When the Argus thought they didn't need to be doing news any longer Dakota Scout picked up and started publishing. I purchased a membership and happy I did.

Congratulations, Dakota Scout! You stuck it to The Man who abandoned Sioux Falls.

“The motivation is not money,” Haigh said. “The motivation is to make sure the city is publishing valid legal notices.”

Hahahahahaha!

Keep it at Dakota Scout. At least I can read the notices without using five magnifying glasses.
