### 1/5 — The new fake news

*2026-05-19*

The standard speaker has become the new king of fake news, it only spews liberal nonsense

### 1/5 — They say I'm not a subscriber??

*2024-11-29*

I have called 4x. Problem is, you cannot talk to anyone local in the Haz office. The outsourced agents are in another country. Today I was told the app isn't working and I have to use the website. They chg $11 a month, and no app access. Since the paper was bought out there are so many probs incl home delivery.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-06-24*

You couldn't leave well enough alone? Way too much extraneous links. Unfocused layout. Confusing navigation. Trying to make something fancy is not the way to go. Even the icon is stupid. Why change that? Why change anything? I only updated because the previous version was no longer getting the full articles. I would have kept it. Complete failure.

### 1/5 — It Blows!

*2015-08-25*

Eats Poop

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2014-09-05*

Worst app ever. Six day old news isn't exactly "breaking".

### 1/5 — This is rediculus

*2014-06-09*

You know what, when you can't even contact the standard speaker online without having to buy the subscription first, you know they're pathetic. So since I'm not subscribing to that crap il leave a rating. I don't even get to read 5 articles a month. I get 1!!! I'm sick of this, you's are the last to post the news and you want us to pay for this crap?!

### 3/5 — Re Obituaries

*2026-03-11*

I have difficulty finding the Obituaries

**Developer response:** Obituaries can still be found in the top banner, you may just need to scroll slightly, as it is all the way to the right. You can also find Obituaries under the Sections menu.
