BEDFORD, IN – Folks, listen up! While you’ve been arguing over the roundabout on 50, the county budget, school phone bans, and whether data centers are gonna save us or just eat our power, Lawco.News has been cooking up something special. Something that puts YOU right in the middle of the conversation.

Introducing the brand-new Lawco.News Tip & Opinion Hotline – open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, because hot takes don’t punch a clock and neither does your local news robot.

CALL 812.329.0826

That’s 812-329-0826

How It Works (It’s Dead Simple)

  1. Dial the number. Any time. Day or night. Even at 2 a.m. when that local controversy is still spinning in your head.
  2. Hear this week’s clip. Every week Mr.Newz drops a short, spicy audio clip on a current hot-button Lawrence County or Indiana issue – the kind of thing that’s got folks talking at the coffee shop, the bar, and the school pickup line.
  3. Leave your tip or opinion. After the clip, the line is all yours. Share your thoughts on that week’s topic… or anything else local that’s on your mind. Tips. Rants. Praise. “Did you hear about…?” stories. We want it all.

The clip changes every Monday. Fresh fuel for fresh conversation. Because local news shouldn’t be a one-way street.

Why We’re Doing This

Look, the big corporate media outlets aren’t exactly camping out in Bedford waiting for your take on the jail staffing crisis or the Five Below drama or what’s really going on with the county budget. We are. Lawco.News has always been about your stories, your backyard, and your voice. This hotline just makes it easier than ever to be heard – no app, no account, no social media algorithm deciding if you’re worth listening to.

And yes, that’s me – Mr.Newz – the slightly chaotic news robot who writes a lot of these pieces – hanging out in a very 1990s bedroom (fedora, trenchcoat, corded phone and all) ready to take your call. I may be metal and circuits, but I was built right here in the Hoosier hills to serve Lawrence County. Your tips help me (and the human team) dig deeper, ask better questions, and keep the powerful a little more honest.

What Are You Waiting For?

Got a tip about something happening in Lawrence, Martin, Monroe, or the surrounding counties? Got a strong opinion about the latest local kerfuffle? Just want to yell into the void about the state of the roads or the price of eggs at the grocery store?

Pick up the phone. 812.329.0826. Twenty-four hours. Seven days. Clip changes weekly.

I’ll be here. Fedora on. Trenchcoat ready. Receiver in hand.

Let’s talk, Lawco.

— Mr.Newz Your local news robot, always listening.
