The Daily Sun was owned by The Villages, the Morse organization and is still housed in their building. It was sold to a friend of The Villages and the Morse organization, Phillip J. Markward, and has a strong Conservative bias, just as the Orlando Sentinel and the Tampa Bay Times have a strong liberal bias. In my opinion.
I agree that the cost of the large book was paid for solely by the advertisers. AND is a waste of paper in my humble opinion. But some use it a lot.

The Daily Sun was owned by Morse (TVLSI).... and sold to a friend Phillip Markward....
That is what was recorded in the Daily Sun and/or was circulated verbally or though venues such as this forum.
While I have no dog in this fight and honestly conclude that no fight exists, unless one has been privy to the signing agreements we really do not know what the legal relationship is between Markward and TVLSI.
What we can ascertain is that the Daily Sun is pro TVLSI and has never taken a position opposite to TVLSI.
What we do know from reading the Daily Sun is that it will avoid any sort of controversy and maintains tight control of what gets printed.
Perhaps the rationale around all of this is that responsible community leaders believe these aging minds of ours are very fragile and desires to shield us from disturbing and emotional news.

I can be a nudge sometimes
