The TimesDaily COULD be much more...but it is my observation, after reading it daily since the early eighties as a grade-school kid, that the paper just acts as a public-relations facilitator for the City of Florence, UNA, and itself.
There's never been any hard-hitting journalism-- and I've always suspected that that's because nobody at the publication has any real drive or motivation to be a pro-active tool for holding governments and organizations accountable to the citizenry, as you would expect from a 'real' newspaper.
The TimesDaily is an excercise in "journalism by press release", rife with conflicts of interest, and as eager as your average senior-citizen's home newsletter to convince everyone that everything's rosy and tranquil.
