### 1/5 — The very definition of greed

*2025-08-16, version 3.18.13*

I cannot believe that you would force a subscription on readers in order to be able to view obituaries. Families pay hundreds of dollars for these to appear in your paper and now the only people who can see them are those who pay for a monthly subscription? Did it never occur to you that the majority of people who view these are older people on fixed incomes? While this newspaper is a mere shell of it’s former self and is not worth the cost of a subscription in it’s entirety, charging to see obituaries alone is completely absurd.

Addendum: I just paid $850.50 for my mother’s obituary to appear in the Salem News for 1 day, and now, I can’t even view it or read people’s guest book entries, because I don’t have a subscription! How outrageous is this? I should be able to view the entry I PAID FOR anytime I want!

### 5/5 — Keeps me close

*2025-07-05*

I live in Michigan but this app keeps me updated on everything that’s going on in the best area in the world. Thank you!

### 5/5 — app is intuitive and works well!

*2025-01-03*

I prefer this app to the one I have for New York Times.  Having the whole page format is great, and makes it easy to locate articles to focus in on.  Very well done.
