Recycle Those Bags

There is a plastic shopping bag that has been caught in a tree in the Tribune’s parking lot, flapping in the breeze, for several weeks. Even some very windy days have not been able to shake it loose as we wait for some kind – and very tall – soul to remove it. Another plastic shopping bag was similarly caught in some of the Tribune’s shrubbery recently. These are just a few of the many that have found their way to our property in the last few months.

A few readers have questioned placing a box ad in the top left corner of the front page, directly next to our West Essex Tribune logo, stating that it appeared like an endorsement from the Tribune for the advertisers.
