Missing The Times
I appreciate the irony of your May 31 opinion pages, with Kenneth L. Caneva and Jane E. Sugarman's letter dissenting from your decision to terminate The New York Times News Service (echoing several previous letters) on the Opinion page, and opposite, on the Second Opinion page, columns by Times writers Tom Friedman, David Brooks and Nicholas Kristof -- all of them worthy of your pages.
I will miss these and others from The New York Times, and I may look for an alternate source -- perhaps the Raleigh News and Observer?
I appreciate your paper, and I hope you will reconsider your decision. It would be unfortunate to see our major area newspaper shrinking toward local coverage at the expense of wider news.
