Urinalism is spreading

The Parsons Sun and Chanute Tribune will no longer have the scores of the local football games in Saturday’s edition because the papers are being printed in Joplin, Missouri about 100 miles away. This means they appeared in today’s paper. Meanwhile, the Independence Reporter had a front page story about last Wednesday’s Wilson County Comission meeting.

News is supposed to be new. For daily newspapers this should be inexcusable. I guess since the big city papers pulled out of town earlier this year, they feel we will put up with untimely service. Have they looked around and figured out how many people aren’t getting any newspaper?
