Sacramento Press announces CJ Competition

By Bob Toovey - 13 October 2009

The Sacramento Press, a hyperlocal site, have announced their Citizen Journalist Contest. It's main aim is to get citizens to 'commit' acts of journalism.

The goal of the contest is to engage users and readers and encourage participation with the growing site. The contest organizers urge participants to think small. “The blighted vacant lot on your street, the business person you patronize, the leader you admire, the trend you abhor, the community group you support, the artist living above you, the band rehearsing next door.”
