Papers are just planning the funeral. They are already dead, they just don't recognize it yet. Leading reason is technology. But especially in this part of the country, their hard left viewpoints hurt them terribly. And they dont realize that the majority of their readers don't agree with their point of view. Unfortunately, sportswriters seem to be the worst. Anytime they have a chance to write a column flaunting their leftists views, they jump at the chance. Their Twitter accounts are even worse. Papers were going down just like the horse and buggy. But they did a lot to hasten their departure.

No, they just think you are stupid,... or worse.

I'm reminded of the time when my (legal immigrant) mother ran into the editor of the local bird-cage liner and asked him why they hadn't published any of her letters-to-the-editor on immigration, legal and illegal. The skinny, pale, bespectacled dweeb looked thoughtful and answered, "We don't publish hate speech." Opinions "they" disagree with aren't just wrong, they are hateful, racist, homophobic,.... evil, and they don't even deserve to be heard.

I agree Slicker. I was getting the Post & Courier at home also. It is so sad that most Newspapers are losing money and just going online. I still love reading the Newspaper in Print.

GO BEAUFORT EAGLES!!!!
