Lake Placid News

Lake Placid News is "a weekly community newspaper" focused on Lake Placid, New York.

History
This newspaper, along with Adirondack Daily Enterprise, was purchased by William M. Doolittle Jr. in 1970. Other newspapers, including The New York Times, cite some of their stories. It also covers Lake Placid, New York.

In 1977 The New York Times used the phrase "vigorous criticism" to describe opposition by Lake Placid News to "total disregard for the safety of the people who hike the state's trails." The Times noted their reporting about what a local association called "a desecration" of "the only site in the state that has anything to do with the Civil War."
