Daily Press not what it used to be

In 2018, after Tribune purchased the Virginian Pilot, the two newspapers basically merged. Lost were home town stories replaced by the Seven Cities narrative. People on the peninsula do not really care about the goings on in Virginia Beach or Norfolk. Gone is virtually all reporting on Isle of Wight county, York County, Poquoson , and Williamsburg. And sports is worst of all. VHSL groups high schools Class 1 to Class 6 based on size, but not the DPVP. 757 Top 15 rarely has a Class 3 school in its Top 10. Yes, Phoebus Football is the exception. But try to read an article on Franklin HS sports. As for news, if I wanted to read NYTimes articles, I would subscribe to The NY Times. Keep them off the front page. And try a source other than the Associated Press. Again, keep the local news on the front page. And if you have to continue a story past the front page, put it on page 3. If you continue it on page 14, tell your advertisers that many readers like me never come back to read the pages in between. DP was once a good paper. It could be again.

Still can’t print

Still can’t print a puzzle to use offline. Printing the whole page makes them too small to see

Change of address

Guess what I subscribe to Barron’s too and I have the
“same” problem.
Since last message I received a call from your sales representative wanting to “subscribe to your paper “.
She assured me she would see to my problem start sending me a Wednesday and Sunday paper under a new sales program.
Lo and behold come the next Wednesday and then Sunday my “hopes “were dashed again as I got NO paper again for the umpteenth time.
Plus adding to the misery I STILL have no Barron’s.
Explain to me why my neighbor across the hall gets a paper with NO problem and I can’t get nothing.
I only moved 2 1/2 miles from where I used to live.
You come in second to the Post Office.
I await to hear from the Daily Press for a change.

Change of address

Changed address with you February eighth not received paper since after calling 8/9 times to find out why.
Finally had to cancel paper.
Incompetent service.
You should investigate what happened with your local people as they also deliver for Barron’s locally if I’m not mistaken.
Guess what I subscribe to Barron’s too and I have the “same” problem.

Need Peninsula News

The Daily Press used to have stories about the Peninsula, but since they’ve merged with the Pilot and been bought out by a hedge fund, that has fired many people including reporters, they have very few stories about Peninsula News. The front page usually is mostly Southside based stories. I’m afraid after reading the Times Herald, then the Daily Press since 1971, I’m going to have to stop reading this paper and rely on local and national tv and online sources for my news.

I can’t get a paper on line while I’m in Cancun to see who died today.

Now you won’t let me send the review, why???

Caution: No Landscape Mode

I have been a Daily Press subscriber for over 20 years. First, they made the physical paper too expensive. Fine, I’ll go digital. Now they remove landscape orientation, on an iPad!! It is obvious that you don’t want me as a customer any longer!

Excellent timely well written articles

Daily Press gives important, local and national articles; well written, accurate, full of important and vital information. The article regarding the Coast Guard is informative, vital to this area, and well written. It discusses the problems and concerns with the ongoing measures to work around those and reassures that the Coast Guard will continue to play the important part it has in this region.
