1. Set the geographic boundary before reviewing story coverage
Hereford is a municipality in Deaf Smith County, Texas. The 2020–2024 American Community Survey 5-year estimate records 14,840 residents for Hereford, with a margin of error of 16. Bosseo’s public Legal News description says stories are matched to a firm’s practice areas and state. The local decision is how the firm will apply that stated state-level coverage to its own service area without implying that a statewide story is specifically a Hereford event.
Recommended approach
Write down the geographic scope for each practice area before approving coverage. Use Hereford and Deaf Smith County only when the underlying story supports that relationship.
