    I don't get the paper delivered, but I buy it a few times a week.
    I get a lot of news online, but really enjoy reading newspapers. They
    always have smaller stories & articles that you miss online. My favorite
    section is the funnies & advice columns. Always read them first.

    I don't ever save the papers, but I always check to see if I missed
    anything & then throw them away.

    we get 2 papers delivered each day. i do read 75% of the columbus dispatch and 60-80% of the new york times. i almost never the read the sports section and rarely the classifieds, but comics are first, then the advice columns, then the local stuff then the national and editorial pages. uncle pete, at the rainbow bridge, taught me to read by reading the detroit free press(then the morning) and the detroit news.(the evening paper then) comics to and with me. i'm reading the comics to helena now. when i moved into my adult life i took the local paper, and a national one if possible. a news junkie
    joyce who has princess peanut, spokesdog for the catpack, mojo, magic, kira and squirty, members of the catpack, angel duke, a good dog who is missed and angel alex the wonder dog, handsome prince.

    I really like the "idea" of newpapers but truthfully I just don't have the time. I certainly don't keep them unless there's something special. I have the Obama issue, Princess Di's wedding and John Lennon's death. I have the snipped article of Johnny Science when he answered my sisters question and she won a globe! I'm addicted to the Huffington Post so that's where I go first thing whenever I get on the computer. I do find the news depressing and so negative. I also think that the 24/7 news feed on CNN etc can only lead to desperate measures to get anything that's "news" be it "news worthy" or not. I had to laugh at the CNN commentary on MJ's death when the reporter said "Michael Jackson will only die once." Ya think? LOL
