Muncle - I guess the question is: How long is an unfertilized egg viable? Could it be used for chicken IVF? Would PETA get involved? Would the artificially hatched chickens be accepted by their community? Would they taste differently when they come off of the rotaissarie?

All good questions that have nothing to do with the Daily Sun. ;)

Seldom do you see a newspaper that does so much to get local peoples names and pictures in the paper - admit it, it kinda makes you feel good to see your name or picture in the paper. Are the evenhanded and unbiased in their coverage? I think not! They do go out of their way to promote TV (that is good, IMHO) but I sometimes think they go too far to hide the bad news too - accidents by drunks on our streets, break-ins, robberies on the sidewalks at some of our shopping centers, shoddy workmanship or repairs, etc. We are a reflection of society as a whole (maybe a little skewed reflection due to an age differential but still a reflection) so we will have our share of bad news. My criticism is that The Daily Sun does tend to hide that a little. Not being a "shoot the messenger" type, I would not hold it against The Daily Sun if they printed more of the "bad" news. As far as local events go, their calendars of whats coming up and their coverage of what went on in TV are great. Missing typos is generally only a reflection (again IMHO) of the downturn in the quality of education nationally. Typos happen in every newspaper sooner or later. But that is an entirely different subject (or can or worms) that I don't want to open here.

I agree. They offer good coverage of local events albeit the "good" events as opposed to bad news. However, their coverage of national events/politics has been consistently biased in one direction. As someone else said, if you don't like it, don't read it. So I never buy the paper for that reason - I try to get my news from various sources on the internet.

And which ones are those that are not biased???
 
None!!!!
If one is seeking unbiased reporting one obviously does not turn on the television set to any station....eh!

Because of TV captive audience and their involvement in banking, renting, liquor stores, wellness center, et al they do borderline conflict of interest on many levels.

With their battery of legal eagles, they know very well just how far to skate on how thin of ice.

If one had a business that perchance competes in any of their enterprises you would full well appreciate it even more!
