TimesDaily: So Little News, So Much Wrong


Welcome to the world of the TimesDaily where nothing of any great import ever happens - at least if it’s bad. Want local crime news? Click on the drop-down news menu for crime and you’ll discover the last entry in that section was January 27th. Two months without any serious crime?

Sure, some crime stories have been published under the general heading of news, but no “Law & Order” reports have been made available since Tom Smith left the daily disappointment. Why? Is it just too much trouble to call and ask local authorities or does the TD simply want only good news these days?

What is wrong with a newspaper that considers the non-demolition of a long vacant building to be worthy of headline news? It’s sad when the Lawrenceburg newspaper has more to offer than our local one.

If you want real news, if you want real opinion, you’re not going to get it from the TimesDaily.



Shoals Retail:

Hibbett Sports is set to close almost 100 stores before the end of the year. The chain that once called Florence its corporate headquarters is keeping mum on locations, but any town with a Sports Academy or a Dick’s for competition is a very good guess.

While the Hibbett chain is spread out over 30 states, we’re going to predict the Shoals will see at least one closure. There are currently three stores in our area, and a source close the company has told us the Florence Mall location has been underperforming for some time. Yes, we know, you’re shocked...
