Over the past thirty years I have occasionally picked up the paper to see how far to the left it has moved. The reporting is biased at best and then reporters often tell downright LIES about Trump, the Republican Party and any conservative ideas. I was once one of three people invited to sit in on an editorial/news review committee consisting of 14 opinion columnists, reporters and and editors. I watched as any conservative ideas (and there were only a few of them) were shot down by the editors. Nothing got by those editors that wasn't in favor of leftist ideas and propaganda. Afterwards, when the ombudsman asked the three of us what we thought, I told him exactly what I observed. He sort of sighed, looked at the one editor sitting in with us, and then rolled his eyes. Under his breath I heard him mutter "Oh no, one of those". If anything the paper has moved further left. Arizona deserves better. This so called newspaper is a fine example of why newspapers are slowly disappearing.

Dear New Times, I…read moredon't quite understand why the reviewers here are so down on you but can only conjecture how most aren't strip club aficionados, in need of a good car stereo at low, low, prices, or, have little interest in attending concert events featuring eighties bands who've been relegated to 'Behind the Music-where are they now'. But that's precisely why I love you. Without you, how would I have ever known Chesty Morgan was performing a one-night only gig at Bourbon Street? I've never seen 96FFFF tits prior to or since that day, so kudos for that one. The image of her hot air balloon tits will be forever seared into my spank bank. A triumphant five stars. As for the car stereo places featuring the 'One dollar install', what a load of shit those places are. They may only charge a buck to install, but you can get the same piece of equipment on Crutchfield Online for half the money, and, get a high school dropout to install it for a couple of blunts. So no stars for those thieving fucks. And your classifieds? I love them-particularly the variety. Men seeking women. Women seeking men. Bi-men seeking racially bigoted trans-gendered she-male dominatrix. Women seeking goats. Is there no end to your ever-growing list of deviant captions? Five more stars, but mainly for your consideration of the deviant-sex aficionado whose only outlet prior to your varietal classifieds was either NAMBLA or a henhouse. Another section of your paper I love is the call girl ads. Yet five more stars and big fat mega props to your devoting page after page to these industrious eager beavers. I can't begin to tell you how consoling it is to know that when it's my turn to host poker night, I can choose from any number of 'college coeds' to make certain my soiree is the hit of the season. Although, I can't give you a bunch of stars on this one. Not only did one of my buddies lose a stack that night at poker, he also lost his longtime girlfriend, and, with no medical insurance, his low-rent romance cost him a couple of trips to the clinic. You may want to look into this. Maybe put one of your reporters on the case, since it tends to irretrievably fuck-up people's lives when some so-called college co-ed shows up to the party with STD's powerful enough to take down a village in the Sudan. Major party foul. Anyway, overall, I have to give you high marks. Between Chesty's uber titties, 'mostly' disease-free call girls, and, seeing at least two of the original Eagles perform at some Indian Casino way the hell out in BFE, my life has only been greatly enhanced by what most here caption as an uninformative rag. I find you anything but. PS One of the call girls in your classifieds conveniently forgot to mention how she was in possession of one very large dick. This was a nice surprise. Again, perhaps fodder for one of your investigate journalists.

Note that Midwest Publishing Inc. is a service business offering several types of services. One of…read morethe services they offer is telemarketing and donations collection with bent towards Political, Non-Profit, and Charitable business sectors. Unfortunately I was on the butt end of the way this business makes call out to to potential donation targets. Fortunately for you the Yelp reader I don't just donate, I investigate. Similar to other scummy organizations that will make calls on the behalf of any business, Midwest Publishing employs processes and techniques that attempt to blindside in the effort get someone on the phone. After they get you on the phone they hard sell the topic of the call without much regard to the person they are calling, or the business they were retain to hawk. Their shady tactics include: - No caller ID or calling party number sent during the call. The calling ANI is simply blank. - No calling party name display (CPND) sent during the call. The calling name is either blank or is reported as "Out of Area" on your phone. This is usually due to the Caller ID / ANI not being used. - Robodialer used for calls. Questionable for many use today except for pre-authorized calls, or community safety alert calls. Both of which are not the business of Midwest Publishing. - Voice detection on their Robodialer not compliant with Federal and State laws. The amount of time to detect the target of the call was more than two seconds after answer. In my call the time about 13 seconds of saying hello. Either their system is purposefully setup to break Federal and State laws, or their technology is older than dirt. Either way it's not something recommend for any modern and reputable call center. - Non-compliance with state laws requiring them to inform the about call recording. California is a two-party state. At no time in the beginning of the call was their a recorded announcement or a information from the agent I was connected to about call recording. No beeps played either. Yet the call was a donation call with the intent to collect funds and record the call to prove my authorization. - Call back numbers requested and given by both the agent and the supervisor on the call did not route to any working number for either the charity campaign, or Midwest Publishing. - Of the potential donation you might make to a charity, only 20% of anything you give will go to the organization that has contacted Midwest Publishing to make the call on their behalf. - The makes a major point of their pitch as a contractor servicing political, non-profit, and charity businesses . This allows Midwest Publishing to ignore numbers on the Federal National Do Not Call list. Perhaps a even to the point of calling your number that is on the DNC list during your meal time or family time. A note about the lack of Caller ID / ANI. This lack of sending ANI is usually due to the contracting organization requesting that no number is sent. A scummy tactic for any business to use. In most cases a reputable call center company would at least send their own ANI if one was not specified by the contracting business. To my last point I did ask Midwest Publishing to place me on their internal Do Not Call list for any calls from Midwest Publishing or the businesses that retain their services. Given their calling tactics I am not really counting on them to honor my request. Based on all point stated above you have to ask yourself just what kind of shady political, non-profit, and charity campaign calling jobs Midwest Publishing would take on? Not any that I would like to receive calls from that is for sure. I heartily recommend you avoid Midwest Publishing for any reason as a customer or as a calling target. If you are a potential employee then ask yourself if you soul, spirit, and morals can swim in the murky river of slimy call center tactics. Have a good look in the mirror agent Michelle and Supervisor Jennifer. Please don't call me again in the future.

When I contacted them to request removal, I received an arrogant response from their Editor-in-Chief stating verbatim "we do not need any type of permission whatsoever in order to publish this data, nor do we remove it from the database". In other words, they are fully aware of what they're doing and simply don't care. Make no mistake, this is data brokering under the disguise of journalism. They exploit homebuyers' personal information for profit, offering no way to opt out. Their refusal to even entertain the idea of consumer choice speaks volumes about their ethics (or lack thereof).
