I feel the job of a (good) newspaper is to report local events. As someone said, political leanings one way or another would be displayed in the editorial columns. What was annoying to many, was the fact that the Palin event was highly advertised and reported in a manner akin to "the coming of Christ", while Biden and Kennedy are little blurbs at best. To take the "love it or leave it" stance is in no way helpful. I hope that in the future, if we voice our concerns to "the management", we will eventually get some changes that will make The Villages a better place to live. If they hear it from enough people, they will get the message. If we go along like sheep, nothing will happen.
