The Baltimore Sun


The Baltimore Sun is Maryland's largest daily news paper. The Sun covers events, issues, people, industry, and most of all the local and regional news. The Baltimore Sun's audience are residents of the state of Maryland and for a small fee of $3.71 a week ($192.92 yearly) The Sun can be delivered to your door step each and every morning. I have heard that they are biased towards liberals I have no evidence though but I do know for a fact that they have won 15 Pulitzer Prizes; which I'm not going to lie, it's kind of a big deal.

In reality, the cold hearten truth is that, no matter how good a news paper actually is or made out to be, over time technology will continue to become more, more, and more accessible to news and information. I actually believe that the news paper is a wonderful, traditional, old American source of information but to me I see the news paper industry being completely diminished after our older generations are gone and we are the old timers for a much younger generation. Of course not all of our generation will like to agree with me, I too do not want to agree with myself, I do like sitting down, holding, and enjoying the paper occasional. Inevitably, down the road when apple just releases the "I phone 9000" or HTC makes the "Droid super duper extremely incredible" with "32 g" speeds, people will have the news at their finger tips so fast that eventually those normal neighbor hood scenes in movies where the two neighbors wake up at the crack of dawn, both of them go out side in their robes and underwear for their morning paper and one neighbors paper is right at his door step and the others is on top of his roof. Yeah those scenes, they will be no more.
