I alwyas buy this paper, not for the national or even state news, but for the local coverage. The Mountain Eagle is a paper for the community. If you need to know who died, which church is having a revival or a pancake supper, or which local high school football team made the playoffs, then this is the paper for you. They have a special section every year for high school football, and another for graduation. They even print childrens' letters to Santa!
