The worst

Even after a revamp, the N&O website is terrible and difficult to use, especially in its design and ability to highlight the relative importance of stories.
It’s depressing to see a once great institution suck this badly.

Repeated stories

News is very repetitious, same stories in multiple locations

BEST OUT OF STATE NC NEWS

I’m an Atlantan with multiple NC connections, and this is my news source for NC political and sports information.
Always A Great ReadAlways A Great Read

App won’t work on IPad

After an iPad update the app no longer works anymore. I get to the opening page and it won’t scroll past page 2 puzzle page. I called and was told to access the paper through Safari but I have to search through a bunch of tabs which is annoying and inconvenient. I called customer service over a week ago and reported this but it has not been fixed. App is useless right now.

Terrible App

Extremely glitchy. Navigation is a nightmare. Worst news app I have ever used.
