I stopped receivin the newspaper over a year ago.......I got tired of the
constant socialist slant (and that was the "conservative" paper in town.)
The sports coverage sucked, unless it was the hometown teams, and it ended
up more ads than anything. I have found I can get the all the major
editorials on line, (realclearpolitics is a good one for that) as well as
better sports coverage...and the links typically will give you further in
depth info. I watch the TV news only for the "breaking" stories....and most
of the time it is comical seeing the "journalists" trying to cover a story
that they have no idea what they are talking about.
