The Budget is the Amish community’s newspaper of record. And yes, it does have a website — which, presumably, none of its readership ever see. What’s Pennsylvania Dutch for “irony”?

But then, The Budget fulfills a role as a sort of “Amish Internet”, on a weekly paper-and-ink basis. All of which adds up to an insufficiently-orthodox slant, in the eyes of some:

[The Budget] is the oldest and largest among Amish publications, which include Die Botschaft, a rival weekly formed in the 1970s by people who believed The Budget was too liberal.

Sure enough, Die Botschaft (”The Message” to you, English) is firmly off-the-grid, with no Web presence in sight, other than an official Library of Congress listing. Old-school Plain People, represent!
