Thanks for reading through to the end…
We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we've never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.
We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
Before you comment
The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service. Thank you for being part of this effort to promote respectful discussion.
I’m guessing this rag won’t approve of my comments as they don’t serve to further their cause.
But lets think about this. Has anyone laughed at anything this guys written? I can’t remember seeing anything funny, recently or….ever come to think. 0 comments seem to be proof enough.
And since you obviously haven’t noticed, Occupy was like sooo 3 months a go. The one percent didn’t approve then, and they don’t now that the movement is all but dead.
Mr Morton, you need to hone your skills a bit, bud, Or perhaps political cartooning just isn’t your calling in life?
Ever since the Ashevegas split, the Xpress has continued down the rabbit hole. Someone is reading this, it probably won’t be posted, but it needs to be….or at the very least forwarded to your immediate superior. (if you care about he future of your job, at all)
Here is a serious bit of news.
There is no short coming of substance local news and issues…
And we are damn tired of hearing the same buskers featured time and time again on your site. We don’t really care about what clothes people are wearing. And last but not least political cartoons are just plain suck.
You owe it to your paying advertisers to heed these comments.
