Nice app

I like the print edition along with the top stories. Top stories get me up to date quickly. But I still enjoy seeing the printed

Newark Advocate enewspaper

The Advocate enewspaper is great, except when you can’t read the bottom line or when the side is chopped out of the article. I enjoy reading the national and international news in the Advocate. But it is supposed to be a local community paper. I can read about Gaza but there is no coverage of people killed in car accidents in my community or if there are break-ins and robberies in my community. I running joke is, “Oh, you can read about it in the Advocate, har, har, har.” There is plenty of news about Cleveland and Cincinnati, but evidently there are no local Advocate reporters. I buy the Advocate because there is no alternate news. Plus, there is local news in the Granville paper and Pataskala paper included once per week, other than that, a waste of money. Finally, the local sports have improved and now includes all the areas of the County.

Great HS Football coverage

Great HS Football coverage, articles really well written , pictures are amazing

Horrible experience!

Trying to read even one story on this app is an excruciating experience in frustration with the rolling ads that constantly disrupt the story. It is infuriating. I am canceling my subscription because this is impossible to read.
