Positive-first local reporting
Good things happening around Richmond.
A positive-first view of local stories about achievements, community support, new openings, improvements, and constructive developments. Headlines link to the original publisher.
Positive stories, by design
This optional view uses transparent rules to select positive or constructive signals from RSS headlines and short descriptions. Neutral stories and headlines centered on harmful events are normally left out.
The filter is a simple first-pass classifier, not an editorial judgment or a guarantee. An occasional story may be missed or classified incorrectly; open the source to review the full reporting.
