I think it's really sad and unfortunate that a city, village, or whatever we are, of 70,000, soon to be 100,000, does not have a news source that can report the news or even the upcoming events in an unbiased way. I have absolutely no problem with a newspaper leaning right or left, but that should be confined to the editorial or opinion pages. I realize that if we don't like it, we can subscribe to a newspaper from Ocala or Orlando or wherever, but we really don't have another choice of a paper if we want the local news. I love The Villages, but it is too bad that some people from the "friendliest" place can only offer a "love it or leave it" response. Wouldn't it be nice if we respected other people's opinions, even if they differ from ours.

Well, hit 'em straight. I'll see you in the shallow end of the pool.
