The News will probably publish a Stand alone version of the paper, complete with four sections. What hype. And speaking of hype, what about WGR 550, the voice(heartbeat,breath,every move) of the Sabres. You want to listen to a 24 hr/ day infomercial. Really gets sickening after awhile. They actually devoted hrs on end discussing if the fans have a right to boo their team. Now thats compelling radio. Howard Simon & his shlep Jeremy White should move on to another city. Maybe Butte,Montana would be a good fit for this shlock radio. Take Schopp & the Dope with you(he sounds like the Aflac duck). Maybe they should call him Bullduck!

There are so many typos and factual errors in it lately.. it is appalling. You also have so many stories where the News whines and makes themselves the story, which isn't right. A prime example would be the story when Buffalo Public Schools wouldn't honor the FOIL requests. Yes, you mention it in the overall story, but you don't make yourselves a victim in the story. Also...I agree with the news for doing what they're doing. Wether you like it or not, the Sabres are what the people around here care about. They're getting more people to read the paper by putting those stories on the front page, and they're getting more off the stands for it. I don't blame them. Give the people what they want.
