Several readers have inquired as to why some news items in the Park Labrea News and Beverly Press do not have a byline (author of the article). These news briefs are created from press releases we receive from government offices, city halls and police departments, among many other outlets, which we then edit. If a story is not bylined, that does not mean we published a press release verbatim, only that we have not done independent reporting on the story. We put bylines on original content we create, where we interview several sources to represent all sides of the story. We welcome your input on all of the stories we publish every week in your local newspapers, the Park Labrea News and Beverly Press.
