The Daily Sun is not a newspaper as much as it is a marketing tool for The Villages. It is a good source for finding out what kind of recreation activities are going on and a few feel good stories about residents, but it is no way a newspaper.

I agree with your opinion that the Daily Sun is not a newspaper. It closely mimics many other things within our community. There is a sameness or almost cult-like look to TV that is apparent once you have been here for any length of time. No one questiones it and most people give TV accolades one after another. The repetition of the circles, the impeccable manicured grounds, the cookie-cutter look of the houses, the same landscaping regardless of the model home (don 't come home drunk), the piped in Fox News radio throughout each square. All these things are apparent and well planned.
Thankfully, the look has not only attracted Stepford Wives, but some really, really nice people!
