Paywalls

After years, it’s time to delete. The greed we are seeing everywhere has now hit this site. What a shame. I won’t give them a penny, the large intrusive ads were bad enough.

Real journalism

Real journalism is more important than ever in the current political climate. Huff Post hasn't sold out to a billionaire yet and they continue doing real reporting.

News limitations

For 20 years or more this has been my main news source. First app I open in the morning while still in bed. They want me to pay for access after reading a few articles. Too bad. I’m going with Apple News if I have to pay monthly. Bye bye.
