[PPRAANet] Fw: Another Gazette price increase coming!

[Dick-w0raa]

ecm emailI received this in my e-mail from Myra, KF0W's xyl.  Sidney is 
KF0W.  This is rediculous and we all need to bombard the Gazette (AKA 
Garbage and Trash) with phone calls and e-mail telling them so.

They have the idea that they are the only game in town so they can stick it 
to us whenever they wish.  Rediculous.

I don't know how many of you subscribe to The Gazette, but I just got the 
email below.  What an outrage that they will now charge an extra $11.88 per 
year if you want the TV section included with your Sunday paper!  I've 
already changed to getting just the Sunday paper the last time they had a 
price increase so I could at least get the TV section and sale flyers.  I 
know many of you may think, oh that's just another $1 a month, but I'm 
getting tired of every company we use just jacking up their rates with no 
choice for us in the process, just like the cable company.

I've already written an email to the Gazette with my opinion that they 
shouldn't do this, but should somehow find other pages they can eliminate 
instead and not raise the rates or I may just cancel and go with a Denver 
paper or the free online tv listings.

Anyway, maybe it would help is a whole bunch of us all flood them with 
emails similarly complaining about this rate increase.  If no one says 
anything, then they'll think it's just okay to do this.  Then I'm sure 
they'll come up with another across the board increase next year, too.

I wrote my email to two email addresses I found on the site as follows:

customercare at gazette.com (subscriber customer service)
and
jeff.thomas at gazette.com (head editor's email)
