Re: Palouse Living trashes community...
Hi, I live in the Hawthorne Village Apartments. There they place the Palouse
Living issues in a neat stack in the laundry room so those who would like it
can take it. This could happen in other businesses and apartment complexes
as well (much like AdMart and the Argonaut). I agree that the Palouse Living
section is more mess than help because the prospective readers are a)unaware
they receiving the paper until it's a soggy gray mess or b)they do not want
the publication at all. Perhaps this is a better solution than dumping the
papers on the lawn of the Daily News. Plus, the current distributers could
still keep their jobs by taking the papers to the drop-off sights. Thanks.
