Where else can you get a daily paper the size of the Daily Sun with all the features it has for $.18 a day. I would venture to say nowhere. Our local paper in the villages may not be perfect but it provides news, information, coupons, and informative special features. Besides there are so many other sources for news and information today. I get my national news from the Internet and I'm sure most others do the same.

Fred, I agree with
every word you wrote, especially the last two sentences highlighted above.
But in this case, I was reading local entertainment news that did not appear in the Daily Sun. It appeared in villages hyphen news dot com, for which I agreed in my first post that there is a need.
Again, I think it's trashy to surround a good article like the one on Johnny Mathis being here had been planned by Oscar Feliu.
It is surrounded at the top right and left with ads that look like a ransom note (see screenshot below).
Then after the end of the same article, a
good article about Michigan State University Alumni group here (helping middle schools with grants)
is buried, surrounded above and below with mug shots and lurid article titles. (See second screenshot below.)
