Coming Soon: The Rice Reader Newspaper

Citizens of Rice, Texas will soon have another newspaper all their own. The Rice Reader was born after The Ellis County Press' news editor, Joey G. Dauben, bought the Palmer Post.

"Small-town newspapers are very popular," Dauben, 28, said. "I've started one in Milford, but the Palmer Post and Rice Reader will be the start. Hopefully, the newspaper will spawn a whole new level of citizen involvement in their communities."
