Dear Patch: Please Stop These Corporate Ads That Take Up Space From Real Local News

If you have noticed, ever since Adina Genn left Port Washington Patch, the 'local' news has become less and less local. From advertisements for Grown Ups 2, which received a whopping 7% from critics, to College Essay help (there are websites devoted to that) Patch has been getting worse and worse! I used to enjoy Patch for it's up-to-date LOCAL news. If I wanted college essay help or if I wanted to find out how to roast beets I would go on collegeconfidential.com and allrecipes.com, respectively. Please comment and convince Patch to go back to the way it was- informative, relevant local news. Thank you.
