Rhonda,
        We have about 50 newspapers both local and national. Most of the
newspapers are subscribed through our vendor and we have no complaint about
receipt. The local Boston papers are on time every day. Although subscribed
though our vendor they are delivered by carrier. Two papers have to be
ordered direct and they have been the problems. The renewals get lost in the
mail, etc. Best of luck on your RFP.
