Mine is the Hays Daily News, prior to being bought out they published 5 days a week, now it's 3 for the same price.
And not only that they drastically changed what they cover and don't cover anymore, letters to the editor appears
to be history. And speaking of history, Sunday's paper had quite a few history lessons in it, one about Abe Lincoln.
New owners trying to brainwash us into being good magaloons?
Won't bore you with all the stupid changes but one, no crossword in today's paper, a 1st in it's history.
So let's hear from people who get these papers noted above and whether you're happy with the changes or not.
Is CherryRoad ruining all of them?
Oh, and if you get one of these newspapers and haven't noticed any major changes, let us know about that also.
Hays Daily might be a test case of sorts.
