Subscribers are experiencing delays in newspaper delivery, with some reporting waits of up to two months.
Jill Friesz, owner of GS Publishing in North Dakota, has encountered frustrated subscribers, including one who visited her office in late September.
He was telling me he was tired of my excuses and that he may as well just quit subscribing to the paper, said Friesz.
Friesz's company operates seven weekly newspapers, and she has received numerous complaints about late deliveries.
I have so many frustrated people that call and just say, ‘Well, there’s no point in me getting the newspaper because it never gets delivered to me’, Friesz said.
