HAPPINESS

WOULD BE DAILY PAPER PAPERS

TFP is leaning more left

It’s obvious that the editors and writers are leaning ‘left’ more than ever. Trump bashing is the new sport in CHA in seems. Showing respect for the President’s office and elected leaders is a thing of the past.

Great regional paper

We live halfway between Chattanooga and Nashville, but the TFP is our choice for a daily paper. It has lots of regional news to keep us informed of events of interest. Plus a good blend of local, state and national news. We love it and we love Chattanooga!
