Welcome to the Orange County Local News site and thanks for visiting.
We at OCLNN want to become the premier place for all things OC. Local politics, education, entertainment and sports — high school to farm club to pros — are among the topics that we’ll be covering. Our goal is to give you what you need or want when you need or want it.
We live here and care about the community. We buy groceries at the Stater Bros. in Aliso Viejo, drink coffee at the Starbucks in San Clemente, go to the movies in Irvine and watch the waves roll in at The Wedge. Our interests are your interests. We at OCLNN are parents, students, newcomers, old timers and pet lovers. We ride horses, workout, enjoy wine and worry about money.
Over the next few months, we’ll be rolling out a multitude of sections for you to peruse, wander and perhaps even wonder.
And one last note — no taking ourselves too seriously. We promise to support the irreverent and the humorous as well as the critically important and the serious.
So Orange County — you are our customer. And as we begin our conversation today with a beta launch of our offering, we suggest, we encourage and we exhort you to participate. Let us know what you like and don’t like. You may be busy commuting to work, going to school, or playing but you are not shy.
Welcome to the conversation.
