Paid for a subscription, got ads for porn

First of all, why am I getting ads if I paid for a subscription? Second, why am I getting ads for porn? This is bizarre

Recommend for residents of Greater Lowell

As far as I know, the Lowell Sun provides me a variety of local news stories I wouldn’t have otherwise known about if I relied on the n my shoe news outlets. I like to keep up on what’s happening in the Greater Lowell Area and this newspaper does just that.

I like the old format to just flip Pages just like I was reading the paper version

Unable to acess sections

For some reason it is not working day or completely doable to access particular sections of the paper each day.

Not worth it!???!!!

You have to buy the paper the Sun

Lowell Sun have to get Lowell news from
Other sources! And it’s amazing they keep
Badgering you to buy into it!
