1. Define the geography before selecting stories
Marlene Village is recorded as a CDP in Washington County, Oregon. A page intended for people in Marlene Village is not automatically a page for every Oregon searcher, every Washington County resident or the entire Portland metropolitan area. Those are different geographic audiences. Bosseo’s public Legal News description says its monitoring is matched to a firm’s practice areas and state. That supports an Oregon-level review, but it does not establish a Marlene Village-specific feed, local incident coverage or coverage of any particular metropolitan area. Before adoption, decide whether the firm wants pages framed for Marlene Village, Washington County, Oregon or a combination of clearly identified areas.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to show how geographic scope would be selected and expressed in proposed pages. Require each page to identify the relevant jurisdiction accurately and avoid implying that a statewide story is a Marlene Village event. Use the Census geography as a boundary-setting fact, not as a reason to claim that residents are searching for legal help.
