1. Set the geographic boundary before selecting stories
The Census records Marcellus as a municipal town in Onondaga County, New York. That distinction matters when a news item names a place, court, agency, road, or legal development. A page about a New York rule may be relevant statewide, while a page about an incident elsewhere may not belong on a Marcellus firm’s website simply because it is nearby. Bosseo’s public Legal News description says its service matches stories to a firm’s practice areas and state, but the public description does not establish a Marcellus-specific coverage boundary or a particular Onondaga County source list.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how geographic relevance would be reviewed for your firm. Decide whether your coverage should distinguish Marcellus, Onondaga County, the wider New York market, and matters with no meaningful local connection. Require every proposed page to identify the jurisdiction it discusses and avoid implying that a statewide development is a Marcellus event.
