The best compliment that this paper can have is that Timothy Snyder, an Eastern European historian thinks local newspapers are one of the most important components to the health of a free and fair democracy. And I agree. How else would I find out about what the Mayor, my Aldermen or my County Council or School Board are facing? How else would I find out about local businesses? Many places in the US are in a news desert. Over 2000 local newspapers have gone out of business since 2009. I am grateful everyday that I have a local paper to read!

I moved from the area but still enjoy reading the NP. It has enough National news for me, and covers local news nicely. I think it does a good job trying to keep the citizenry informed. However, I do not like the new combined Sat. Sun. paper. Events that happened on Saturday are old news by the time articles appear in the paper on Monday. Where I live now, the comics are printed in color everyday. Why can’t the NP do this, too? Also, my paper here has 2 crosswords, boggle, jumble, cryptogram, and Sudoku. Could the NP add a few more games? Thank you for being Frederick’s paper and always trying to improve.

I’m really enjoying my News Post app because I can look up articles that I’ve read in my paper and send them off to friends and family! The only thing that I would suggest is that I would love to be able to search archives on my app because sometimes I remember a great story that I wanna go back and pull and send to someone or print out for myself and I can’t seem to do it on this app. But otherwise – thumbs up!!
