	+ ------ + ''2009-11-09 13:51:38'' [[nbsp]] I really have to wonder if loss of ad revenue is really worth closing down the site so much. I can think of many times I needed something on the ER but instead had to resort to newspaper databases and not give them any impressions or click throughs. Granted the odds I'll click on an ad are astronomical unless I happen to be in the market for whatever popped up. Anyway, their loss, not mine save for a sliver of time. --["Users/RyanMikulovsky"]

The Enterprise was established in 1897 by L. A. Eichler, with the first paper being printed on Jan. 1st, 1898. The Davis Enterprise is property of ["McNaughton Newspapers"], which also owns several other papers in the area. The Enterprise is printed at noon and delivered weekday evenings and Sunday morning. Carriers are considered independent contractors and are paid $.129/newspaper delivered. Unlike the public perception of "newspaper boys", many carriers are adults with cars. If you wish to become a carrier, call 756-0826. I was a paper carrier for 3 years as a teenager and delivering papers on Sunday mornings in the rain was very beautiful and amazing.

- * There is no pdf of the whole paper. Each page has it's own pdf, so If you want a copy of a whole newspaper, you must download it page-by-page. Worse, they're not named something unique such as 2009-09-16_A1.pdf but simply A1.pdf (for example). This means you have to either rename the files, or place them in their own directory, or archive them (tar/zip/etc.). There is no free text version, so searching for strings is problematic. For an aditional (hefty) fee you can purchase text versions of individual articles. You can view pages online either by clicking the page number or the redundant "view" link. This is only useful for headlines and pictures, since the body text is just barely readable at the resolution they display it at (481px × 940px jpeg). (Note that jpeg is a poor choice for non-images, they should have chosen gif or png.)	+ * There is no pdf of the whole paper.

	+ If you want to read more Debra, then try the ["Winters Express"], she is the editor. I also think she is a much better one than ["Debbie Davis"] who tends to be just a business booster and not want to offend. Debra, on the other hand is not afraid to have a strong editorial position on politics that don't directly affect the paper, and I think that plus the fewer editions make it much better quality. Hopefully the Enterprise will improve with fewer editions now also. If you want to subscribe to the Express in Davis, the Enterprise will deliver it to you. --["Users/NickSchmalenberger"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-02-16 21:51:35'' [[nbsp]] If you want to know what's going on in Davis -- everything from local politics to sports to local events to UCD to the downtown -- you read the Enterprise. I don't think there's any other way to get that much information about Davis, and honestly, I don't think I'd feel comfortable living in a place without knowing what's going on around me. Some people think the Sac Bee's coverage of Davis is more extensive, but I don't see it. If you want an alternate perspective, there's always the ["The People's Vanguard of Davis"], which doesn't hesitate to criticize (or, occasionally, have positive words for) the Enterprise. Some downsides to the paper -- when there's not much (of interest) going on, it's a rather quick read; I've been known to read three or four in a sitting when I get behind. They seem to have an overly generous "Letters to the Editor" policy; they will print letter after letter from the same person, or let an extended "he said, she said" dialogue go on between two people, and often, the letters are just really crappy (as compared to, e.g., the letters in the SF Chronicle). I wish there were more Debra Lo Guercio and less Bob Dunning. Sometimes the stories are just so small town I have to laugh -- someone stole my bicycle, a duck fell down a sewer drain... All in all, it's an OK paper. It could be better, but so could a lot of things. --["Users/CovertProfessor"]
