Tough one. My local paper is a right wing propaganda sheet.
When I last subscribed they were also barely competent. I ended up reading it just to catalog the spelling and grammar mistakes.
I eventually ended the subscription accidentally. The paper would stop showing up, and I'd get a call from the subscriptions department asking if I wanted to keep receiving it. I'd say yes, and it would start showing up for a few more weeks, then stop again. Went through that process about three or four times before they stopped calling to ask if I wanted to receive it.
It took another month or two before I realized that the credit card that I used for the auto-payment for the subscription was one that I had lost and gotten reissued with a new number. By the time I realized what the problem was, I decided that it was for the best.
Oof, yeah that's a good point. My county has a decent one and I'm happy to support them, but I wouldn't pay for it if I was in your situation either.
