LATEST COLUMN: Our approach to correcting mistakes
It’s part of an effort to improve accuracy and transparency about how we handle news reporting in The Register Citizen.
Another step that we recently took is to publish a formal corrections policy on our website, and to print corrections on the site on a special page, in addition to correcting them within the stories themselves and in print.

LATEST COLUMN: Fact Check program about accountability, transparency in local news
Since launching an easy-to-use online “Fact Check” form in May, readers have made well over 100 reports to us about local news stories that contained incorrect information, lacked context to the point of being misleading, or missed the “real point” of the story altogether.

LATEST COLUMN: I'm buying in, literally, to downtown's potential
Like most of you, I am tired of driving past empty storefronts and buildings falling into disrepair on Water Street every day.
And like most of you, I felt helpless when the Torrington Twisters were purchased by an out-of-state person two years ago and moved to Massachusetts.

Sound Off to feature live chat
The Register Citizen's popular Sound Off feature will evolve next week with the start of a weekly "live chat" feature.
The chat will allow readers to discuss and/or debate the issues of the day in real time, and to interact with Register Citizen staff about topics in the news and how the newspaper approaches its coverage and website management.
The chats are free and open to anyone — no registration required.
To participate, log on to the Sound Off between 7 and 8 p.m. on any Wednesday, beginning Sept. 22.
One question still unresolved - and up to you, the readers - is whether we will choose one hot topic a week to discuss, or keep the discussion wide-ranging, similar to the basic Sound Off concept.
CLICK HERE to vote in our survey on which topic our first chat should cover.
