Love digital
Oh, I thought I would hate not having a Newspaper in my hand and turning the pages one at a time! It took a short period to adjust, but now I would never go back to paper.
If I get up early, the paper is always right at my fingertip. If I don’t finish the paper, I can easily take it with me anywhere I go.

Review
I am letting you know that ideally enjoy the NWA Democrart Gazette-paper on the Ipad. I do, however, miss the newspaper in print on actual paper. I wish the daily could be available to the home subscriber. Keep up the good work. Love all the articles! Sincerely, Rebecca McClellan

Convenient
Don’t have to wait for the printing, I can read the story as soon as it is written.

Printing Puzzles
My wife and I enjoy printing the word puzzles and sudoku daily, and look past the biased national and world coverage of stories by the Associated Press. The DG Editorial Page seemingly picks issues where it knows so little that it reads more like a plea for help than a reasoned opinion. The NW ARK is the saving value of the paper, along with later deadlines afforded an online version.

Fortunate to have ADG
During a time when so many newspapers are folding, we Arkansans are indeed fortunate to have a functioning, reliable statewide source of news. The conversion to digital took some time to adjust to, but now seems natural and one can see the advantages it even adds to the paper. Stay strong with this essential endeavor!

Truth
Sometimes our reporters write in ways you have to reread the story a couple time to really understand what their saying in order to get the REAL message.
I understand, but keeping a job you like and earning a living is kind of important. 🙈

Becoming to liberal
When I first stated reading this paper gave a good reporting on both sides of the isle, no it is leaning to the left, just following in the footsteps of the rest of the media. No big surprise!

Best Arkansas newspaper
If the only way I can get the Arkansas Gazette is online, I’ll take it. I miss the paper version though. Love this newspaper.

Put banners on editorials!
I pay for your paper I don’t think I should have to endure your blinking add banners in the game section of the paper. If it’s such a great idea why don’t you place them over the editirials?

Heavy Woke Liberal Bias
I've been a subscriber for about two months now. Love the layout, format and the Razorbacks coverage, however their general news coverage is blatantly one-sided. It feels like a paper out of San Francisco rather then the south. With the recent state elections leaning so heavily Republican you would think they'd get a clue & tone down their liberal rhetoric. Example: in todays Sunday edition I got slapped in the face with a huge photo of the Miss Gay America contestants & a long write up on the event. An article demonizing a 7-11 owner for playing classical music to keep the homeless from sleep

Local news
Local news is watered down to accommodate a large service area! Coverage has been better coming from my 35 years of experience in this area.

The paper excellent in giving news both local, state national and international 👍👍 The best well balanced paper in the land.

Good
Some puzzles aren’t downloaded correctly, currently including Wordsleuth, the sports editor hates and is so biased against Saban and Alabama (and definitely is a “homer”), and most of the opinion pieces are a joke. Otherwise, a nice newspaper.

Dependable Software
I’ve enjoyed the digital D/G for years. The new editions are always ready on time. I read this published news media in about a 600 mile radius.
Thank You,

FLUFF
There has been an enormous amount of repetition in the on line edition that has been published , probably from day.
Having to wade thru what I call FLUFF, or FILLER, is annoying. It’s difficult to see a good purpose, appearing to just take up space.
It looks like a good editing would be in order.

Review
Photos, clarity, and accessibility are wonderful.
I’ve never adapted to interactive puzzles, so I miss the old-fashioned way. And printing the NYT crossword is not convenient.
