1. Set the geographic boundary before reviewing stories
Rupert is recorded as a city in Minidoka County, Idaho. Those are different editorial choices. A Rupert firm should not treat a state story as automatically local, and it should not describe countywide coverage as though it were limited to the city.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how a proposed coverage plan would distinguish Rupert, Minidoka County and broader Idaho stories. Decide whether each page should address a city-specific question, a county relationship or a statewide legal development. Record the intended geographic scope in the approval decision for each page.
