The Times is probably fine as long as you don't expect to read any actual news. But, if you are going to settle for feature stories and fluff pieces only, you might as well subscribe to the Homer Guardian Journal. That way, at least you'll know when Tech77 celebrates his 100th birthday.
Exact same tactic here in San Antonio with the Express News. I dropped them for their dishonesty in trying to push their paper. You left out the ploy where they say the price went up midway through your subscription when I had already paid them for a full year. I think they use the same company across the nation to sell their papers. I have quit getting the paper to just see what ridiculous opinions they are trying to pass off as news and see the sports section (the only difference in the SA sports section is that they support UTSA and the SPort sports doesn't).
