We were offered the Arizona Republic, Friday Saturday and Sunday edition for $52 per year. This is the largest paper in Arizona.

Tried it for a year, couldn't wait for the year to end. The paper usually went into the recycle without being read.

I can read it online, comment online, see the ads online,

and I hate their anti-Sheriff Joe bias, as well as many other of their policys.

So, if you can read a newspaper online, ANY newspaper, just about anywhere in the world, why would you want the paper version?

By the time the thing hits the door, the news is obsolete.
