The Truth Matters

STPL News is a community-focused news outlet dedicated to providing accurate, in-depth coverage that serves the public. Our mission has always been to inform, engage, and empower our readers with truthful reporting. Over the years, we have built a strong and loyal following, earning the trust of the community through our commitment to integrity and transparency.

However, that trust is now under attack.

A direct competitor, instead of focusing on fair competition, has resorted to unethical tactics in an attempt to undermine us. They have misrepresented the truth, published misleading and false articles about us, and gone as far as reaching out to our advertisers, sponsors, community members and even local politicians with misinformation aimed at damaging our reputation.

This is not just an attack on STPL News—it is an attack on honest journalism and your right to have access to unbiased, fact-based reporting. These attempts to manipulate public perception and political influence threaten the foundation of a free and independent press.

We refuse to be silenced.
