Realtor

One of the few trusted new sources I’ve relied upon for years!

First Morning news

Always has the most important news of the day!

Number One Source for Timely Information

Great independent source for timely in-depth information.

Subscribe

I have been a subscriber to the HuffPost for years and suddenly I can’t get it on the phone it shows I’m there and knows who I am, but it keeps threatening to cut off my views! Help!

Well researched, well written articles

Huff Post is the first news I read every day. Articles are well-researched with references noted. Clear, honest, concise reporting. Good job.

Why

So unless I pay a fee, I can’t read an article? Ad revenue isn’t enough? So irritated, shockingly greedy.

Paywall!?

I have supported Huffington Post by watching ads on the website and app for the entire time that they’ve been in existence. I am now deleting the app because I am not able to pay for a subscription at this time so all of the ads that I viewed and supported the website for with over the past I don’t know how many years apparently mean nothing.

Limiting access

I am so annoyed that after the years of supporting you at the entry level you are now limiting my access to the news. Democracy dies with limitations on the access to the news. I am actually considering dropping HuffPost — period.

App takes you outside to advertise’s apps without touching ad

This has been going on for a while now. I am scrolling down a story and without warning, I get whisked to Expedia’s web site, or to Walmart’s app on the App Store. I was just scrolling by and not interested in either of those apps or websites. I definitely didn’t click on either of them. This kind of behavior from Huffington Post’s app makes me abandon the app all together. Why do you think this is ok behavior? It is not! You’re cheating your advertisers and it makes me less likely to do any business with them. Stop inflating your advertising numbers, it’s cheating!

Spinning Circle, Nothing Loads

None of the stories would load so I deleted the app and reinstalled it and now the app won’t even open. So I deleted the app and went to another news source.

Great stuff

The kind of reporting that I find engaging. A broad range of topics that keeps me interested

Range.

Wide range of stories - well written and presented

Don’t pay

Not worth it

Keeps me up-to-date

I really can’t stomach what’s going on in the political world today, however, I need to keep up with as many issues as I can because of my need to understand current events. So I’m able to read the headlines in the HuffPost every day, and it gives me a wonderful insight to what’s going on, and if there’s a story, I’m interested in it’s always beautifully written on HuffPost. Thank you, HuffPost.

Important news

A great source for news

Costs

This too much for 1 months, part of HutfPost since day 1 …..too much $

No real news

They haven’t had any real news for years. Just a synopsis of other reports work and now they want $10 a month for their garbage.

Not worth paying a dime

Every single article is behind a paywall
Bye bye

No access to content

Despite contributing $10 a month the website keeps me locked out of content. Please correct!

What??

Can’t read any articles even though I am paying $5 a month. Don’t know what’s wrong or how to correct it.
