Rating: 5/5

When we decided to cancel our subscription due to rising costs we opted for the digital version and are very happy with the app. The page looks like the printed page, like being able to zoom in on photos and small print. Also easy to send articles to other digital devices ot send to printer. We want to support our local journalism and the digital version works best for us. Easy and portable on iPad- can read anywhere!

New to Tucson, we wanted to get an e-subscription to the Daily Star. The automated phone system sent us to Mumbai, where I went through the process of signing up. Five days later, still no access to the online version. I went to the automated phone system again, this time ending up speaking to someone in the Philippines, again no help. After five more days I finally spoke to someone in Tucson at a different department in the Daily Star. Bingo! Very helpful, got our e-subscription going. Really like the paper - but they need to bring the subscription process back to Arizona!!!!

I’ve noticed in recent years that most journalists start their articles with a story. That can be misleading. It’s one example of the facts that may come after a lengthy and emotional beginning to the journalists presentation. I believe the facts should be presented first. We all enjoy a good story, but the who, what, where and when in broader context should come first. Otherwise an emotional single story may skew readers’ perception and turn away further consideration of a particular issue. Non biased presentation of the facts helps the reader to judge potentially biased emotional stories.
