My wife and I just moved to Rome from south Florida in July. Love the city and the people. Rome News-Tribune is an excellent source for local news. I’m also the Coca Cola driver that fills your machine so I’m practically family!😊

### 2/5 — Lack of info

*2022-10-17*

I realize that today the paper is struggling to survive but I am considering dropping the
Paper because it isn’t a focus in my daily life anymore. Getting it in the mail(late afternoon) I don’t take the time to sit and read it. In the morning I have time to sit and read it all. Now I don’t get it til late in the day and it is sometimes 2 day old news. Not relevant. If you are going to skip a day, skip a weekday - not Sunday. I get a paper on Saturday afternoon and not another one til Tuesday afternoon. Unfortunately that makes my weekend sports uncovered by the paper. 
 To put it mildly, I am disappointed by the paper lately. I have been a subscriber for around 50 years and am having to consider whether it is worth the money to keep it. Please make some changes to make it worthwhile to stay subscribed.
