Both papers gave me value. The Daily Sun is our "small town" local interest Publication. They don't claim to be anything else. You don't go to a hardware store to buy bread. Don't buy the Daily Sun and expect US News and World Report. They ARE a "Newspaper". It is the news of what is happening here in the Villages. That news is of interest to many of us.

You make an excellent point, but I need to ask one thing.
Did the Cherokee Ledger, through their op/ed pages, supposed current national events and no disclaimer otherwise...... bother to pretend that they were a
real newspaper?
But hey, you're points are well taken.
Those of us who would like to see a higher standard from them, should pretty much just give it up.
