End of a era. Farewell Newark Star Ledger!

[june181901]

I go back far enough with 'the Ledger' to remember the name Nelson Benedict who wrote an outdoor column. The sports section also gave good coverage to the Seton Hall basketball team from the 1940s on.

End of an era that reaches well beyond the Star Ledger. Great newspaper at the time for all the reasons already mentioned. It was a time when life was fun and more simple, people had respect, no internet or social media meaning people God forbid actually socialized. Community meant everything, cities were safe at all times of the day and night, they thrived and were the heart and soul of everyone's life. Family gatherings meant something, people went to church, dad worked and mom raised the family. There was actually something called family dinner when the family sat down together and talked about the day. There were rules, family values, work ethics and consequences if you didn't listen to Mom and Dad. And fishing was beyond what today's youth will ever comprehend. I miss those days, the world was a much better place.

New Jersey Globe should update their editing / spell check capabilities or they'll be the next paper being written about. "End of an ERROR", oops! I assume that wasn't intended as a play on words, article doesn't appear to suggest it.
