  Welcome to Lehigh Valley What the Heck ?!
  
  For those of you new to Lehigh Valley What The Heck?!, our blog has a duel mission: To support this and all communities by providing an alternative source for news and information, arts and entertainment with journalistic integrity as well as subjective commentary on those stories (duh, repetitively redundant, huh? After all, isn’t commentary by nature subjective?), humor, expressions of mortal outrage (opinion), and feedback (criticism…and in some cases censure).
  
  Our reporters and writers pride themselves on keeping one foot in the time-honored tradition of journalism and the other in the cyber world of citizen journalism in the new media, all the while pleasurably riding that hard, throbbing fence that barely separates the two worlds.
  
  It boils down to this: We may present the news with a balanced or unbiased approach, only later, and in the final analysis to break it down from our own perspective. In the old days of the crusading journalists, the freedom fighters who waged war on the corrupt and morally degenerate old boys’ networks, members of which dubbed them “muckraker”, there was no such thing as “objective journalism”. How can something perceived by humans be objective?
  
  Our goal is to achieve balanced reporting while freely providing citizen perspective…we admit it, we’re proud of it. We take pains to differentiate and categorize one perspective from the other so the reader gets it. This is not a satire. This is not a test. This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no foolin’ around.
  
  This is Lehigh Valley What The Heck?!
