Our local fishwrap is doing something different.
Last week on Thursday and this Thursday in the mail not in the Fishwrap, we received addressed to our address, the Thur/Friday classified ads of the Fishwrap with 3 inserts in the classifieds. One insert was from a local store, and two were biggies, Walmart and an electronic chain store.
Our younger son noted that in his new neighborhood, only one house gets any newspaper. That household may discontinue because of the noisy delivery pickup. They are getting complaints from their neighbors being awakened at 3-4 am for the delivery of the fishwrap.
We have friends, who live in a very exclusive locked gate community of 50 homes. Their last homeowner meeting nearly became a boxing match. 5 home owners still get the NY Slimes and San Francisco Gay Rhonicle, and the delivery truck wakes everyone up at about 4 am. The 5 elite liberals from NYC and LA want their Slimes and Gay Rhonicle inspite of the negative impact on the other home owners. We may see lawsuits on this before it is over or some punched out fishwrap lovers.
Our son and DIL, 60 miles away receive the local fishwrap free every Friday with ads and inserts in it. As noted before, no one in their cul de sac buys/subscribes to any fishwrap.
