Hey, I know it's popular but this is ridiculous! It was a good thing I grabbed a Chelsea Now early on the day they came out (Friday, March 13), because by the next day they were not to be found in any of the orange Chelsea Now boxes near the Chelsea Hotel. I thought this was really odd, since papers usually stay in these boxes almost until the day that the next batch comes out (the paper is now bi-weekly.).
Odder still, when some of the boxes near the hotel were refilled this week, the newspapers were once again all gone by the next day. Coincidentally or not, the issue contained several Pro-Bard letters to the editor. The week before, when one anti-Bard letter was in the paper, there was no problem finding one in boxes around the Hotel. (The Chelsea Hotel itself has banned Chelsea Now from its lobby, apparently in retalitation for a Pro-Bard editorial that ran a few weeks back.)
So what gives? I'd like to hear if others have had trouble locating Chelsea Now? And to whoever removed the papers, just remember theft of "free" newspapers is a crime in New York state.
