A warning

“It’s a warning for other communities.” That’s how Melissa Daugherty, the editor of the CN&R, the RN&R’s sister paper in Chico, California, described this week’s cover story package. “It’s really fucked up here still,” she added.

Nov. 8 marked the one-year anniversary of the Camp Fire. Long after national media outlets—and charity organizations—left the region, the CN&R continues to lead the coverage of a community still just barely recovering.

For Northern Nevadans, this coverage represents a cautionary tale from a similar community less than 150 miles from Reno.
