I only get my local because it is supplied free via the “newspapers in school” program, which only helps to float it’s circulation.

Even out here in the conservatively slanted “boonies”, the press has to angle left.

Curiously, there are no longer any advertisements for real estate and cars. At one point this year, I found a paper with absolutely no revenue generating advertisements with exception to classifieds.

I don’t know how they can stay in business.

Of course those "free" papers are paid for with tax money.

I really wonder about the owners of papers...do they really prefer losing vast amounts of money to promote a political agenda? I guess that's a rhetorical question as it's obvious through their actions that they do. But calling them "news" is really a misnomer.
