Since I prefer to remain in reality by being informed about all that goes on in the area, the good and the bad, I check the online paper regularly. I want to know about crimes being committed, traffic issues, new construction, etc. The medical column written by a retired physician is informative and worthwhile. The DUI mugshots are priceless! Drunk/drugged drivers are no joke and cause great property damage, injuries and even deaths. The public deserves to see who they are. On a lighter note I have enjoyed the photos of the crappy vehicle parking all around TV. Hopefully the photos will improve parking habits and make The Villages an even nice place to live.

As I see it the paper has no axe to grind one way or the other. The letters to the editor are another matter so I always take them with a grain of salt although I rarely bother reading them.
