Joe Sneve and Jonathan Ellis announced this morning that they will be launching their new venture “The Dakota Scout” on September 1st, noting it to be “South Dakota’s leading alternative, independent and locally-owned newspaper, with a focus on state and local government and politics in Sioux Falls and at the South Dakota Capitol.”
We are so excited to be entering a new era of South Dakota journalism and can’t wait to begin bringing you news that matters in just a few short days… pic.twitter.com/DpcZ9d62w0

Congratulations to Joe & Jon on the effort. It might be nice to have something that’s related to what area residents actually want to read about. You can sign up to hear about their publication here.
Congrats to all concerned. I’m looking forward to seeing some of their analysis…
I fully endorse more news sources. Everyone should go right now and give them your money.
I’m sure two industry insiders will rock the South Dakota news scene, and start reporting on the “issues people care about”.
Whatever you do, do not patronize P T dot C.
😀
Sneve was a mouthpiece for Haugaard and Taffy so don’t get too excited.
More like the South Dakota Libertarian Press. Low expectations.
I am really excited for this. Both of these two know their stuff and genuinely try to report the political news in an unbiased way. I appreciate that they’re not afraid to hold those in office to account, but also aren’t out to get them. They strike a good balance.
