Or not so silently. A couple of weeks ago my local left biased rag, The Seattle Times, called and offered a free subscription and was shocked that I didn't want their paper even when it was free. When asked why I told them exactly why and where I get my unbiased news. It didn't seem a shock...they must be hearing it ever more increasingly.
The Philadelphia Inquirer doesn't even bother to ask. As a former subscriber, I get papers every now and again on my lawn, which I suspect is their attempt at inflating their reader numbers.
