Comment standards

The Mount Vernon News requires that commenters use their real names and that they use their own Facebook accounts.

Flaming, trolling, soliciting, profaning, and defaming are prohibited as is hateful, racist, and personally insulting remarks. Swear words also are prohibited and comments that diverge from the topic of the story are not allowed. Be polite and considerate of others’ views. Personal attacks against other commenters will not be tolerated. Any violation of these terms could result in the comment being removed from a story and of the commenter being banned from making further comment posts.

If you see someone posting something abusive, you can report it with just a click.

Violation of any part of the above standards could result in comments being removed and the user being banned from making further comments.

These boundaries provide ample room for discussion among our readers. The News welcomes your comments, criticisms, and contributions to our content.
