I think she said she's not paying 50 bucks for a gynecological search?

That's the same thing the June 7th edition says.

The only entity the Morse family would even think about selling ANY currently owned media to would be one that has been thoroughly vetted to meet the current hard core conservative-only atmosphere. The Sun is a modern-day production of The Stepford Wives mixed with "Pollyanna" and propaganda.

Nobody's forced to buy the Daily Sun.

People choose to buy it to know what's going on in THIS community, not the crime infested ones we left.

We're not waiting breathlessly to find out how many arsons, murders, child rapes and abductions occurred last night in Detroit.

Here's a novel idea: Google "newspapers in the USA". It will yield 218,000,000 results in 0.22 seconds.

We don't read the New York Times every day for crime news either. We read it to find out what's going on in the world and what intelligent people think about it.

Yes, that's right. There are different types of newspapers for different kinds of purposes readers have.

And "intelligent people" who want to find out what's going on in TV and what the best home-buying choices are, read The Daily Sun.

People complain about the Daily Sun only giving one side, jblum315. Don't forget The New York Times, also, only gives one side.

But back to the topic - no change of ownership so far. Starting to have doubts without any actual facts.

Only if you are sitting on the other side of the aisle.

Quirky, call the Sun if you are getting antsy. Heres what I got at dinner at the Cattle Baron. The name of the corp has changed slightly to Villages Media Management or VMM. There will be no changes in benefits for now. There will be no announcements. Id call them if you want confirmation but thats the end of it for me. GG you are off the hook. The rest of you can.....

PS. Dinner at CB was good. The mussels in white sauce were brilliant and the veal was damn good.
