Our channel seeks to draw attention to local, state and national issues important to the residents of Hannibal, Missouri.
Hannibal's famous son Samuel Clemens is often quoted as having said, "A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on." This aphorism plays out year after year, decade after decade, and nowhere more reliably so than in all levels of politics. We deserve transparency and accountability in our city government, our state legislature and in Congress. It's more important than ever to depend on sources that report the facts fully and accurately. These are the values we respect and crave, and those that we strive to uphold in our content.
With Hannibal's Other Voice, the truth has finally put its boots on--and it's about damn time.
