Reply #4: I intentionally do not buy newspapers [View All]

[firefox]

I have bought maybe 7 newspapers in the last three years and that was mostly for coupons to my favorite restaurant. I am insulted by their coverage of the news and if those of us that used to read them everyday boycott until something worthy appears, we will break them and their advertisers. It is like I did not eat potato chips for over 10 years because of transfats. Now they have come out with potato chips and other chips that boast of zero transfats because there is a market that will not eat whatever the conglomerates put in a can/bag.

They give them away at shopping centers here trying to find someone that will basically pay for delivery and let the newspapers have some circulation for advertisers. The second to last time this happened the guy asked me why I did not buy a subscription at such prices. I said it is propaganda for the machine and I would not pick it up if they delivered for free. I saw him the next day at a new store and would not even take a free copy of that day's paper.

If you want to find reality you have to read from the Internet.
