Hi, just fyi, both San Pedro papers are complaining about Jesse and I putting their whole articles on our websites. So there will be less and smaller excerpts from those papers here in the future.

Jesse and ME.

Anyway, a lot of people will forget to even read those papers online if you don't mention them at all.

I agree Texican if its not mentioned people wont go there and...
The trouble with 'me' usually begins when speakers are stringing together two or more objects in a sentence.
'I' is not an objective case word, but i barely speak the language its just tooo complicated.
Its really a shame so many newspapers have left out the paper. I might be unfashionable, but I like to hold a paper in my hand while I read it and should I smack my dog with my laptop?
The San Pedro Sun is the last real newspaper in spirit and form IMHO.

The world of publishing is challenged for new ideas because of how the internet has changed ways of doing business. Rather than a stop, block or prevent mentality it might be better to have solutions that embrace, such as have the advertisements be spread at the same time by somehow embedding/connecting the advertisement with the articles, possibly a command that only allows the page to be copied with the advertising.
Then your doing the publisher and advertisers some good deed, instead of them resenting they would appreciate. This might not be the best idea but its the kind of idea that would lead to a positive solution.
I was stumped when Blogs first came out as to what Marty was going to do with what appeared to be competition. What he did was embrace it by adding a list of blogs to this page, He didn't block , forbid or deny he embraced and here we are at a central hub for relevant Blogs.

I read that...in my paper copy.
Ideally, which is never reality,the Advertisers money pays the cost of running the paper and the price on the front page pays for circulation.
I didn't see a name on that editorial and it didn't sound like the editor.
