For 12.5 years, Vinton Today has been able to publish the names of those who comment on articles without any problem.

Because of recent events, aka readers who commented on articles were now being tracked down and harassed on social media, comments will now look different.

Initials will now only be visible on the website. The first letter entered for your first and last name will appear.

Vinton Today does not tolerate those that wish to harass readers because of comments that are made.

Comments must still include a name to be published. The added safeguard seeks to protect the readers who choose to comment.

Names will still be visible to the editor.

MR October 25, 2022, 1:52 pm Thank you Valerie! Seems like the county attorney and maybe some people in his office are comfortable intimidating people who speak against them. Makes me think all these stories are very true. I hope more people come out with their stories before the election
