Half hour of news weather and sports and 15 minutes of commercials.

Oh and about Sun Times and their ads, those ads are the backbone of their financial support.
No ads, no paper.
We almost never watch live tv programs. Record anything we’d like to see a day before. We have DIRECTV. Tons of hard drive space. And the remote allows easy fast forward at diff speeds. And a key for 20 seconds forward I find that’s great for football. Press after a play ends and almost go right to the next. But especially the crap commercials. We never watch and skip over; the only time in a year we watch them is Super Bowl.

Re ads support the paper, duh. My point was the very expensive full page, sometimes 4 full pages like hearing aids, with so much text….
