The quality of the News-Sun really is going down. We have seen it for years. Yesterdays was 22 pages long. No more tv listings, no Ellie.
It seems they don't think it is very important to put much news in it either. It seems all we see are stories from Judy Masterson portraying the woes of every poor person in the area. Lots of fluff in the paper too. I think maybe 3% of the paper is devoted to news. I have seen in the talk of the county section they are printing comments by seniors who are asking why the comics are so small and where are the tv listings. Many people still don't have the internet and will probably not get it. Especially the elderly. They shouldn't take away the tv listings from those folks.
The Daily Herald is a good paper but they don't think the Waukegan area is important enough to cover. I hope one day they do. It would sure be nice to have a good daily newspaper again.
