About the NRA bag on papers Monday

The Bay City Times provided the bags that contained your newspaper Monday. Your carrier was not responsible for the bag's advertising message.
The Times accepts political advertising. The newspaper doesn't necessarily endorse the opinions of our advertisers. The Times publishes its choice for president on the editorial page, and did so there two Sundays ago.

Seems to me the Bay City Times handled it properly and effectively. Go to the above link if you want to see it in person and read the one comment.

Trust me, the papers need the money and now that the election is over that lucrative stream will dry up.
