What Happened To Patch?

nm, Neighbor

A once respectable, informative community space and news source has now become an advertising hub and a forum for people to discuss Pit Bulls.

Where did the Police Logs go? Or the updates on local legislation?

Why can't we have summaries on school committee meetings? Or even school lunch schedules?

Patch defines itself as a place that "reports on everything you need to know about your town, from local government to school news to what to do with your family this weekend" but my home page is filled with articles like "What Are You Looking Forward To Most About Spring?" and "The Trick to Keeping Herbs Fresh".

This is no longer a community resource but an advertising agency and I am disappointed.


Bring Patch back.
