There's a newspaper in Illinois that includes on its masthead its slogan, to "Fear God, print the truth and make money."

It's a sentiment most papers share, though not so boldly. For without solid financial underpinnings, the paper would be unable to print the news, as the New York Times used to state "without fear or favor."

Today, The Hawk Eye is a successful business that's been doing business longer than Iowa has been a state. In fact, it was established before Iowa was a territory.
