My city has one of those "Springfield Shopper" newspapers. Published twice weekly, it contains no actual news other than "this event happened, this event is happening soon, this person got some award so here's a cliched 'grip n' grin' photo, these people did something so here's a cliched 'execution at dawn' photo."
But it has all the ad circulars for all the stores in town, so it isn't completely without value.
And my mom was complaining to me today that she didn't get her paper. For about the tenth time this year. Mind you, this is a totally free, non-subscription newspaper. How hard is it to buttfuck your way into tossing a copy of the paper in front of every house on your route?
It doesn't seem to be a problem of not having enough papers. Mom called the newspaper again, and she's getting close to being an SC about it, but every time she calls they just tell her they'll re-deliver the latest issue, but as often as not that doesn't happen either.
