Texas paper misses first day

The Sept. 12 issue of the San Angelo (Texas) Standard-Times was never delivered to subscribers after a truck carrying copies from the Abilene Reporter-News, where the Standard-Times is printed, overturned on the way to San Angelo.
E.W. Scripps Co. owns both papers. The publisher transferred production of the Standard-Times to the Reporter-News earlier this year.
The Standard-Times made its e-edition available to readers at no cost for the day. The paper said it was the first time in its 125-year history that a daily edition failed to be delivered to its subscribers.
San Angelo is about 80 miles from Abilene.
