In this edition, there were two stories about the recession and about how it is affecting the way people live and the industries that are seeing declines. In the first article, it talks about how many people are postponing getting married because they cannot afford a wedding. I found the article very sad and many people either have lost their jobs or have a fear of losing them.
In the Sports section, there's an article about baseball attendance that also discusses the recession. Even teams in the hunt for the postseason are still seeing a number of empty seats in the stands. It doesn't help that ticket prices and prices of food is through the roof and it is not easy to take a family out to the ball game anymore. Many people would rather watch in the comfort of their own homes for free instead of seeing it live.
