News source: Government aid could save U.S. newspapers, spark debate
Dear Representative Nicastro,
People grow tired of the propaganda and agenda driven news that comes from too many local newspapers that are willing water boys for the biased national AP network. American citizens are the real ones who determine whether or not a newspaper lives or dies through their subscriptions, not you. If they don't want to put down the dime, why are you getting involved?
What don't you understand about allowing the marketplace to determine what businesses survive? Are you no longer supporting the American way of life? I get most of my info on ads now via e-mail and have found over 15 Internet news sources that report stories daily that my local newspaper suppresses anyway. Remember Jesse Dirkhising? Didn't think so.
For reference I have stopped subscribing to my daily newspaper, tired of its mocking conservatives and championing illegal aliens as they take food off the table of local residences. So if local citizens don't want to pay for the dribble, they're surely going to get pissed off at you trying to replace their non-subscriptions with their tax dollars. What a rip!
Because that is exactly what you are doing, having taxpayers pay the local reporters to be sure folks like you stay in office. Come on, sir, we know what's going on.
When our local newspaper dissed its own North Carolina military hero to promote an agenda-driven AP story on a teenage terrorists that had killed this U.S. Soldier, I said enough is enough and got rid of the rag on my doorstep. Would you have applauded them instead?

And our local newspaper is really not local at all, a tentacle of Rosebud International or better known as Gannett Inc.
So when I read the article on you personally wanting to save the local newspaper, I thought, "Gee, what a surprise. A Democrat wants to use taxpayer money to keep his local propaganda mouthpiece alive. Let 'em go under! It will save the trees and the paper can die a natural death while too many subscribers probably no longer give a damn what it prints anyway (RSVP!)"
Besides, there are small weekly newspapers that fill the vacuum with the obits, police blotter, and report the local news. While it is straight reading and simple, it is the truth that I will lay down a dime for anytime.
Why don't you look after your corrupt party instead, Nancy Pelosi saying she was going to get rid of the swamp and instead replaced it with a living cess pool. For instance, what about that deal Congress just passed that gave 15 billion to waterfront renewal in San Fran near her apartments? Judicial Watch reported in its current newsletter that her husband got millions from that deal. How many local Democrat-lead newspapers are going to report that to their readers, sir?
Or is that the lost service you were referring to?
I am just one of millions of Americans who are just plain tired of all the crap from our politicians and our party-owned media. We continue to ask where did all our statesmen go and why can't we find any in the best Congress money can buy? Duh!
