How sending a tip works: Email your news tip (words, photos, or video) to danny@anycountynews.com. We may email you back with follow-up questions about your tip only. We never send marketing emails, and you will not be added to any mailing list.
Read our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. Your contact information is never shared with or sold to third parties for marketing.
How to send a tip
- Film clearly Aim for about 90 seconds or longer. Hold the phone steady, shoot landscape when you can, and capture what’s happening — not just a blurry selfie.
- Note the facts Include location, date/time, and a short description of what viewers are seeing. Names of public officials at public meetings are fine; be careful with private individuals and unverified claims.
- Text Danny Email danny@anycountynews.com with your tip, photos or video. Attach a photo, video, or go live and send. Short clips work best over text; longer videos can still email danny@anycountynews.com.
- We review Not every tip becomes a story. We may email you follow-up questions about your tip only. Stay safe, stay legal, and respect private property and court rules.
