Making with the wacky
So what happens if you find your arrest for meth possession a front page story on the local newspaper?
One man’s solution was to go around town and buy up all the copies of the paper.
Jack William Pacheco has more copies of this week’s edition of The Chowchilla News than he’ll ever need. … Pacheco estimated that he bought 500 to 600 copies of The Chowchilla News from the newspaper’s office, gas stations, convenience stores and a coin-operated news rack.
A successful CYA of a magnitude most of us could only dream about? Wait, it gets better.
But 500 more copies will be printed and available today.
“We’ve had numerous people come into the office and ask for copies,” said Hank Vander Veen, publisher of the Merced Sun-Star, who also oversees The Chowchilla News. “We need to provide the newspaper to the people who want it.”
