Justin Fields?

Why is there a picture of a Justin Fields story in the update? Talk about a need for an update!

Update failed. Where’s the newspaper

The app was updated thru the App Store. When I opened the updated app, a white screen. I closed the app and reopened it with the same result. Again, the same. I then uninstalled the app and downloaded a new version from the App Store. The same result. C’mon guys, can’t you get this right?

Difficult

App is difficult to navigate.

Reliable and prompt

Local national and world are covered extremely well

Drinking city water for 60 years with lead pipe is that bad?
