I’m going to relay some information to you, and I’m going to be careful about how I do it. This information is about a new online publication in town called the Dallas Express. Its publisher is a man named Monty Bennett. When the site launched, Bennett wrote in a note to readers that his publication is all about the truth, facts, no bias. The first two paragraphs from Bennett:
Truth has become a casualty in today’s media world. News has become a vessel to promote favored world views, and objectivity has been sacrificed. There are many publications in our wonderful city, but none we can count on daily to present just the facts. Readers can’t pick up a local publication without seeing bias in one direction or the other.

Dallas Express was once an important newspaper here. When you google “
Dallas Express newspaper,” you get pages and pages of results that address that outlet’s role in the city and beyond. From UNT’s Portal to Texas History:
Self-proclaimed as “the South’s Oldest and Largest Negro Newspaper,” the
Dallas Express traces its roots to 1892, when William E. King began publishing the
Dallas Bee. Renamed the
Dallas Express in 1893, the paper served as an advocate for blacks in Dallas and throughout the South for over 70 years.
