Anybody taken the time to feed back to them what they'd want to see more of? I'm sure they'd value some feedback.
Hmmm. Tricky, faced with a box of chocs like that.
Oh, go on then:
literacy;
a glimmer of curiosity about the world;
some indication of professional pride;
ditto re conscience about serving up tripe week in week out;
removal of forelocks before addressing any issue involving any local official, elected representative, landowner, possessor of privilege or considerably-richer-than-yow-type personage, so as to forestall the inevitable reflex tugging of said forelocks;
perhaps a bicycle they could use to get to a local shopping centre iot take an actual pic when somebody's parked their car in a wall;
a teeny bit of respect for the intelligence of their target readership;
a ban on cliches both verbal and visual (in particular, no more stupid posed pantomime photographs, such as of a citizen standing by a road sign looking all frowny, or a woman - sorry, 'mum' - with a child holding a lettuce leaf, looking I dunno, tragic about some pet-related mishap). The last with apologies to any who may have been affected recently by pet-related issues, of course.
However, the listings of goings-on at local groups are good. And they always seem to find space for lots of stuff about local school or pub sporting encounters, c/w bad phot of grubby but triumphant runners-about, ideally with a trophy of some sort. And the agricultural sales reports are sometimes diverting. But mostly, it's utter drivel and adverts. There's more, and better-informed, discussion of local issues in this forum.
The cockatiel has the right idea.
