Patch Deserting Ellington-Somers?

Has anyone noticed that both Ron and Erin, in addition to many of our other local editors, are gone? Does Patch have plans to consolidate us into some distant region? I'm noticing lots of so-called news out of areas that have no knowledge of our area.

Patch was intended to be LOCAL news and events. This is no longer the case.

Readership is down and the cause is due to trying to fill our Patch page with fluff that nobody cares about.

Answer this, Patch Regional Editor:

Are we being consolidated into a regional format? If so, many of us will simply quit using Patch.

We are NOT Waterbury. We are NOT New Haven. We ARE Ellington-Somers.

Get your act together and start bringing back LOCAL News and information, or Patch will wither and die.
