Why Local News Matters
In the Cove delivers independent Lane Cove news every day — 100% free, with no paywall. We write for the community, from within the community. We are a proud member of LINA — the Local & Independent News Association, which supports small, independent publishers serving their communities with reliable, accountable local journalism. Local news strengthens community connection, keeps residents informed, spotlights issues that bigger outlets overlook, and holds local decision-makers accountable. When local news disappears, communities lose transparency, trust and shared understanding. Your support helps ensure Lane Cove continues to have a strong, independent voice.
