Today's Daily Times Is Old Salisbury News


I don't care what section you look at today, it's old news. Heck, I'm not even going to take the time to go back and see how many days ago Salisbury News posted the pictures of the arson fires and story, (I even stated they'd tell you it was 9 arson's when in reality it's 10). We reported the David Cox story 2 DAYS AGO, front page news for the Times today as well. Again, the Princess Anne water story, (also front page news)K was told here days ago as well. I'm one guy with 9 contributors. They have a Staff of around 200. You pay for their paper, we're FREE!

In the Delmarva Section today they're just getting around to the Salvia story we posted what, 6 months ago? The only story they out scooped me on was the story about the results from the Audit at the Landfill. WHY? Because they screamed and yelled at the County Executives Office that THEY needed that story, so they sent it to the Daily Times first because they asked for it.

Now do I think that's fair? No. However, I believe the County Executive has to be feeling sorry, (to make such a decision) for the Daily Times because they're losing so much ground any more?

Nevertheless, the Daily Times is asking people to pay for news and information they've been getting for free here days in advance. I think it's a pitiful way to run a business and they should be ashamed of themselves. You haven't heard anything about the gentleman being fired from the City and you haven't heard of them investigating the REVENUES the City has been bringing in recently since this guy was doing such a great job and the numbers went up. You all know the reason this guy is no longer there is because the Mayor is trying to increase parking rates and this guy is making her look bad because it's completely unnecessary. She'll screw the taxpayers any way she can, just like last years Water & Sewer rate increase that Debbie Campbell brought down and over $8,000,00.00 in surplus that just happened to be floating around!

Anything for a Buck, right Daily Times and Barrie Tilghman? Do some real work for once and investigate that story. You know I'm right.

Bayboy, your carriers DM is supposed to deliver the papers if they can't find someone to cover the route. Call and ask to speak to Jason, he'll make sure someone is delivering your papers. He makes sure Joe gets his.
