The Stockton Record

When the Stockton Record was owned by local people, there was a vibrant editorial page with local and syndicated columnists. There were also letters to the editor that either informed or amused. Coverage of local events was also better.

This generation/revision of the Record’s app is a vast improvement over past iterations. I’d say it’s more mainstream and functional, and layout is greatly improved with video stories working properly, and stories in easily accessible sections. Local news is still an important focus for the Record newspaper, with national news served up from AP, USA Today, etc. The new editor is doing a good job of modernizing and diversifying the editorial focus, with increased focus on community inputs and guest columns from local sources. Local newspapers are a niche market, and the Record is filling it well, with plenty of local sports news from area schools and triple A teams, local politics, etc. In my opinion, a big improvement across the board for this town.

Like the 9/11 reports having problems pulling up the obituaries lately overall five stars thank you!
