Newspapers are still coveted by young people, especially after your college team wins a National Championship. From the Daily Tar Heel:

UPDATE: As expected, the first run of 33,000 copies of today’s Daily Tar Heel were scooped up – sometimes in large quantities by individuals – as soon as the delivery trucks pulled away from many distribution racks.

Calls and e-mails from all over campus started coming into the DTH office around 7:30 a.m. reporting the mass removal of papers from their bins and drop sites – some even still bundled waiting to be taken inside offices. The DTH considers such removal to be theft and intends to pursue legal remedies.

In the meantime, the paper will continue to be printed and delivered throughout the day. It will be available for weeks after today at the DTH office.

Please be patient today while delivery continues, and call the office at 962-1163 or e-mail [email protected] if you witness a theft and can provide details.
