East Kootenay News Online (e-know.ca) is the first free online only newspaper operating in the region. E-KNOW, which launched July 6, 2011, brings old school journalism to the new frontier, meaning there is no gratuitous corporate interference in the product — which is all about need-to-know information, being a lively forum of regional voices and home to the best photojournalism in the Kootenays.
