I agree with you on that point Jim however I do believe they take their ads a little overboard. I just stuck an Ashland Daily from this week in the trash bag for tomorrow that had 3 Boyd County Ford ads and 2 Fannin Toyota ads that covered 4 pages of the paper. Granted advertising space sells and that's what gets a paper printed but geez man 4 pages worth of ads and 2 of the BCF ads were the same. Not sure if it was a misprint and was just my paper that got this or if it was everyone's.
The Daily is definitely lacking and has been for quite some time. The ads aren't my biggest concern. My concern is that if you look at an Elliott County Times which only comes out once a week they have high school kids writing the sports news and doing A LOT better job of it IMHO.
