Tennessee newspapers observing Public Notice Week

The Tennessee Press Association has declared this to be Public Notice Week, designed to remind citizens of the value of public notices -- legally required advertising, usually by local governments. "Legal ads" have become a larger share of newspaper budgets due to declines in circulation and advertising. Meanwhile, local officials across the country continue to ask state legislators to reduce or eliminate laws requiring legals to be published as paid public notice in newspapers.
