Newspaper
HI, I AM LOOKING TO MOVE TO THE VILLAGES IN A LITTLE WHILE, AND I LIKE TO KEEP UP ON THE NEWS. I CALLED TO SUBSRIBE TO THE DAILY SUN NEWSPAPER AND WAS TOLD THEY DONT TAKE SUBSRIBERS OUTSIDE THE VILLAGES. ( I CURRENTLY RESIDE IN TENNESSEE)........ I AM WONDERING IF ANYONE WOULD BE SO KIND AS TO MAIL ME THE SUNDAY EDITION, WEEKLY. I WILL PROVIDE ENVELOPES AND POSTAGE ALONG WITH SOMETHING FOR YOUR TROUBLE. YOU MAY EVEN MAIL ME YOUR COMPLETE COPY AFTER YOU READ IT, SINCE IT WOULD BE LATE WITH THE MAIL ANYWAYS. ALL I ASK IS THAT IT BE THE COMPLETE COPY. .. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED AND CAN HELP I WOULD APPRECIATE IT . PLEASE SEND ME A PM. THANK YOU :pray:

The Villages Daily Sun: Villages Mailing the entire Sunday edition might be a little costly. |
I wonder what you want to find out from reading the paper? It's not much a resource to me and maybe there are other ways we can help you find out what you want to know.

I read the on-line version almost every day for a year before I moved down. Even if you could receive the actual paper, by the time you received it, it would be old, old news. Give it a try

It's basically a boring useless newspaper. You can get what you need to know on line cheaper and easier.
|
Reading a newspaper is old news by the time it is printed and delivered.

If you ride around TV in the early morning you will see that most Villagers subscribe to the Daily Sun. The reason is it's a fun paper to read. Read it online and form your own opinion. There is a ton of information on this site that is very helpful.

We used to get the Orlando Sentinel every day when we lived there.
We like the Daily Sun better. Got the Sunday Detroit Free Press ($2.00) during the summer and it has gone down hill. Be glad we have a paper here and delivery every day. |

I actually find the Daily Sun a very enjoyable read. With a great cup of coffee, it starts my day off right!!!
|
I laughingly refer to The Sun as the "propaganda newspaper" and to VLG as the propaganda station. I do believe that they give some good info to keep you aware of what is going on in the Villages but past that, they are rather flat. They are what they are. The Sun is a step ahead of the Station but I do read and listen to both, and accept them for what they are. If you want a real newspaper subscribe to the Otlando Sentinel.

Yeah, you could get some news earlier online, but I have always found a newspaper to be a relaxing experience. We bought a copy of the Daily Sun before heading home to Kansas on Sunday, and read it when I got here later that night. And the beauty of it is, if you don't like it, don't subscribe. No harm, no foul. :BigApplause: |

I am surprised no one suggested that you continue to monitor TOTV because you can learn more about The Villages here than from the Daily Sun |

A local newspaper can give a reader a good sense of a community. I agree with the OP. In fact I subscribed to the Daily News by mail before it was even a 7 day paper. That goes back to 1998. I learned a lot by the paper.

the Daily Sun does not do mail subscriptions,

The labels came from the circulation dept and were separated by regions all over the USA. I would prepare 25 per bag and sometimes have as many as 15 heavy bags. I would then drive to the Daily Sun admin office on Main St for the paperwork and proceed to the Post Office on CR25 for drop-off. Sometimes we had as many as 400 papers going out. I don't know when the service stopped but at one time it was alive and kicking. I guess The Villages just got too big! |
This wannabee always enjoys reading The Daily Sun when I have visited TV. Next month I will get to read the full edition of the Daily Sun while I visit :). I usually log on to the Daily Sun's web site several times a week to read the articles posted there. I wish the entire Daily Sun was available on line for wannabees, snowbirds and snowflakes to view.

The people who look for a different editorial page can get The Tampa Bay Times or the Orlando Sentinel. We aren't ever going to change each other's minds at this point about our philosophy of life and our politics. But we will try.;) |
