I believe you have to subscribe to receive it. If you joined by accident, it's very easy to cancel your subscription.
I haven't heard that you have to subscribe to it.

I found it shortly after I joined here when someone was screeching about it then. I simply saved it to favorites and go look occasionally, but have not had to sign up for anything.




I guess what continually amazes me however, are all the people that become apoplectic about a news source that actually doesn't withhold facts and is willing to be more than a "company town rag trying to sell homes"...such as we have with The Happy Paper.

Even for those who are thoroughly opposed to the 1st Amendment of the COTUS (which quite surprisingly given the political makeup, seems to be quite a few around here), you have to make an effort to get to that (or any other) news sources...so the solution to what so easily sends you into a rage is actually quite controllable.

Just STOP making that effort of clicking on the site...and your problems are solved.

It really is as simple as that.

And it's just a guess on my part, but I'm thinking those same people don't really care for the POA newsletter either.
