Boycotting the AJC

 ajcreach.jpg

I started getting annoyed at the [tag]AJC – or more officially, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution[/tag] a few months because the amount of grammar errors and lack of editing I started noticing in the newspaper.   They seem to have gotten rid of most of their good editors.  In the meantime, I started watching individuals with cigarettes hanging out of their mouths – driving seriously beat up old cars  – throwing this thing called the AJC Reach out their windows.  Now, this “advertisement paper” is wrapped in plastic and usually lands in the street not anywhere close to a home.  And if they do land in a driveway, most stay there until they disintegrate or are finally picked up by the owner of the home (or others).

In the last two weeks, I have picked up a whopping 32 [tag]AJC Reach[/tag] advertisement pieces of trash in a 6 block radius.  The AJC should be proud to know that some of these were from 6 weeks ago.   So, I have had it up to here (I am putting my arm way above my head in this mental photo) and am now officially boycotting the AJC.  I won’t read it on line and I certainly won’t buy it.

It seems I am not the only one who is doing this.  [tag]There is an entire blog dedicated to boycotting the AJC Reach advertisers[/tag].  Wow – people are pissed off.  AND THEY SHOULD BE.  We have enough litter in our city.  Eesh.  Drives me batty.

    A similar community paper is thrown in our driveway every Sunday. I have a deal with the kids where we go around the neighborhood on Tuesdays and pick them all up because No ONE is reading them and they just trash up the neighborhood. We save the papers and Kevin burns them.
