The AP released a new story today stating that the circulation of print newspapers is falling faster than it has ever fallen before.  Also, our local newspaper came out with a 3/4 page ad yesterday claiming a print circulation of  “almost 6500″.  Is their circulation also falling?

We live in a county of 200,000 citizens.  Cleburne itself has a population of around 30,000.  Our local printed paper claims that they have Johnson County covered but boasts of a circulation of “almost 6500?”  How can that be?

JohnsonCountyEvents contends that the established print media have been asleep at the wheel.  They have been around about 100 years and they only have a circulation of 6500?

I was traveling through town today and came across a real nice group of guys showing off their farming tractors.  The club was in a store parking lot braving the cold weather and fierce wind so they can show the public how much they enjoy their activities.  A few of the members I met were Willie Williams, Thomas Williams, Joey Quattlebaum, and Tommy Poteet.  They formed the club about 2 months ago and meet every last Thursday of the month.  Willie told me they are welcoming new members and are looking for other opportunities to show their tractors off.  They have a Grandview Plow Day planned for May 2.  If you would like to get in touch with the Grandview Antique Tractor and Machinery Club you can call them at 817-866-2369 or email at GATMC@windstream.net.  Thank you for visiting JohnsonCountyEvents.com.
