What's wrong with this picture?

I'll give you a hint: This picture was taken at 7am on a Monday.



For nearly two months now, this Journal Sentinel box has remained empty every single day. I notice this because it's usually where I buy my newspaper since it's at my bus stop.

I'm not sure if it's indicitive of anything more than a delivery person not doing their job, but I have noticed quite a few of these empty boxes lately. Is the Journal Sentinel cutting back on distribution using this method? Could it point to a bigger issue?

Or are the early birds just getting to all the newsboxes that early?
