The New York Daily News Is Relentless

[lleeder]

We had a subscription to the Daily News and cancelled it but the kept giving us the paper anyway. We didn't pay for like 6 months and it kept coming. The finally stopped delivering it. Yesterday it showed up again. No one reads the thing and it just takes up space. Today I got a call fro a telemarketer to tell me that Daily News is offering some deal and will give be giving the block Daily News for free all week. I told him no thank you. 2 hours later another lady called about the Daily News. I told her I spoke to someone already today. She kept trying to keep me on the phone, "No wait..." CLICK. These people must be hurting.

Some newspapers and magazines compute the rate they charge advertisers based on their total circulation, not how many people pay for subscriptions. It's a way to fudge with subscriber volume. Enjoy your free paper, and if they call, just say you are not the homeowner and hang up.

Its annoying to watch them pile up, then to collect together and put next to the recycling bin every monday night. If I threw feces on your lawn and said "Hey don't worry its a free subscription enjoy your free shit". You'd call the cops.

Why don't you collect all the papers, and send them back to the Daily News? I know there was a story a few years ago of someone doing the same thing to AOL, they collected all the stupid CDs that they would send out, boxed them up and sent them back to AOL. Sure, it's time consuming and costs a few bucks but maybe they would get the hint.

That might be enough to get me on the local news. Look for a disgruntled douche on the CW11 or News12 in the near future.

I love the stupidity that game brought out of the masses. I'll just ask on the random board what the numbers are.
