I recently received a call from the BDN to renew my newspaper subscription and decided it would be a great way to offset my fuel bill this fall.

What a shame how this historical newspaper from the great city of Bangor, where I grew up, has now become the New York Times regurgitator for the outsiders to enjoy reading.

I humor myself by opening the editorial pages, seeing Danby’s continuous one-sided leftist liberal cartoons, the enormous attention given to a couple of dozen protestors during the Sarah Palin rally, and send the paper to its final resting ground near the wood stove.
