The paper that provides whole story

When people wonder why I subscribe to three newspapers I usually tell them it's because that way I get a balanced view of the news.

But I must say that your newspaper often contains news that the others neglect to print. For instance: The April 23 Back Page contained an article about Bruce Springsteen and how his ancestors arrived at Ellis Island in 1900. I always wondered about the singer's background and even though the other major Chicago papers had articles about this same subject, only your paper had a complete description of his heredity.

The guy is of Italian and Irish descent. So, finally I have my answer. It just took time. And this is why I read everything I can get my hands on, but your paper has time and time again come through with the whole story, so I thank you very much.
