Still like the rustle of the paper, the ink on my fingers, the puzzles, the comics (even though the selection is much better here), the smell of the ink on paper, the local news; but, not the national news. I guess the fact I buy the paper keeps the advertisers interested in keeping the papers propped up. Fake news is the enemy of the people, not the “free” press. Get it right or stop writing; earn it by digging and documenting or stop calling it news. Too many people see thru the unmitigated gall of the present crop of lazy reporters who call what they do as news when they should call it editorial and opinion. Guess I have been around long enough to know what the reporters used to do to get the facts (Jack Webb: just the facts). Only then can an opinion of what the facts mean (impact) be drawn. Journalism is dead. Ah, que lastima!!
