http://www.viewpoints.com/Newspapers Tue, 22 Apr 2008 08:34:45 GMT Reviews about Newspapers http://www.viewpoints.com/The-New-York-Times-review-1f973 I always start my day with reading the newspaper, but I hate reading the entire issue and not having any good news or not really learning anything.  New York Times is the best newspaper I have found because they cover stories from all over, and you will find all the information you need.  They thoroughly cover the topics and offer great information on the latest events.  I love the lifestyle section that offers reviews of books, movies, tv and a great crossword each day.  They offer a great sports section and financial quotes and business news.  This is a great newspaper to splurge on to read with your morning coffee and you will surely learn something new from each...

I found it to be unwieldy: too many sections, lots of inserts from advertisers, way too many print ads, and too time-consuming to make my way through. Like many people in American cities, I ride public transportation to work every morning. I ride the train, and I like to read the newspaper while I'm riding. The ride takes me approximately 45 minutes, and I'd like to be able to get through the majority of the paper within that timeframe. It's not as if I can get to work, sit at my desk, and kick back to read the paper. The Chron didn't fit the bill. — Then I discovered The Examiner. The Examiner is a free newspaper that delivered to lots of homes in the Bay Area, and also available at newspaper boxes all overthe city. It delivers brief, but complete coverage of local, state and national issues, and most of the big, international stuff that I need to know on a daily basis. The...

Not my favorite Texas paper though, perfer the Austin American Statesman. Dallas Morning News and Houston Chronicle seem alike to me and I lump them both in also with the San Antonio Express. I pick up a free alternative weekly paper when I visit any Texas city...

The TV listings are helpful for travel and is the sports coverage. Harder to keep up with sports while traveling. I also like the weather coverage and the puzzles and entertainment sections. Perfect paper to read while waiting or traveling, light news in smaller stories. I like it but its not one that I would subscribe to at...

The New York Times is the best for indepth coverage and their Science section on Tuesday is a must read cover to cover. When we travel, I always look to the New York Times for national news. While I like USA Today for entertainment news anmd weather while traveling, the Times is a paper to read or to spend as much time with as you...

This is a great source of some news - but probably the biggest problem is the limited scope of the newspaper and the need for similar newspapers of its national kind to provide more indepth coverage for us all!  Hopefully other newspapers will take USA todays lead with the graphs and indepth national...

There is so much information in bitesize pieces. After I read USA TOday, if something interests me, I find the information elsewhere to fill in the gaps. USA Today is an awesome place to start the day. I just wish there was a way for them to publish two or three times a...

I have worked in other parts of the country extensively and in comparison to other cities such as Philadelphia, Chicago and Houston Dallas Morning news is far superior. I particularly note the strength of the sports and business...

Aside from the BBC website it's the only source of news I read on a daily basis. It covers all national topics of interest and some other things that most local supermarket rags don't cover at all or sugarcoat to various degrees. I love that the pictures provided are in color as well. Editors and writers for USA Today should keep up the great...

To raise the level of discourse and broaden the depth of knowledge about issues that effect the quality of life in our region of Illinois.  — To me, that says it all.  Whether you are looking for the cool places to hang out this weekend, looking for a fresh take on political issues or what's hot in government or just looking for some interesting reading, Illinois Times is the place to be. Check out their website at www.illinoistimes.com and enjoy! —...

When I was younger, I just read it for the comics, Dear Abby, and horoscopes, but now I read almost all of it except for the sports section. It has a good blend of local, national, and international news. Since my parents and I have lived here all our lives, we find out about the passing of friends and family in the obituaries. Sometimes, there are too many sales papers, but I did find my much loved Internet provider through an ad in the paper. — As our area becomes less rural, the newspaper still maintains a balance between the old and new by covering the area's past with old photos and the new with snippets about new businesses. The entertainment section, which I love in USA Today, is acceptable, but I'd rather have USA Today's. One good thing is people bond over stories in the paper by asking "Did you see this particular article?". Some people subscribe to the Raleigh paper, the News and Observer, but I...

Even if you forgo the news itself, there's books, theater, film, art, dance, music, food, travel and more. A great, world class newspaper that should be available to every high school student in America. Each day has a special section devoted to one special topic. Wednesday is Food and there are always great recipes as well as wine and restaurant reviews (mainly NYC restaurants, of course). Special culinary subjects are covered in depth and with great insight. Friday is a special entertainment section,  with many film reviews (including many you may never get to see if you live in a small town like  mine) which I like to jot down so I can add them to my netflix queue. Sundays are incredible, with a five pound whopper of a paper that is almost impossible to finish but great fun...

I have the headlines running through my veins. There should be a support group called USATodayA(nonymous). I love USA Today's combination of news and entertainment. Living in a small town, I don't get to many bookstores so the newspaper helps keep me up-to-date with new book releases. I also enjoy the TV listings which are as good as the TV Guide listings. The newspaper's listings are always current while TV Guide can be wrong if there is a last-minute change in programming. I get entertainment news I can't get anywhere else such as an article on the twentieth anniversary of my favorite film, Dirty Dancing. — The travel articles are interesting especially about areas I usually visit. There are also financial and sports sections, but I'm not interested in them because I have no money and am not athletic. When I'm on vacation, I have to find a USA Today somewhere. Fortunately for me, most hotels have the newspaper's stands.... Sat, 26 May 2007 04:07:49 GMT http://www.viewpoints.com/USA-Today-review-bf11 NikiTaylor 5 http://www.viewpoints.com/Daily-Herald-review-690c Intro — Here in the Chicago suburbs, we get a variety of newspapers to subscribe to. I think throughout the years, I've subscribed to them all at one time or another, but my favorite by far is the Daily Herald. It has everything that I personally look for in a newspaper. — — The Paper — I read the paper every morning, along with my bowl of cereal and cup of tea, and I have only a certain amount of time, as many others do, to read what I want to, before I get going with my day. I want to know what's going on in the world, the country, and my area. I want to know what's going on in the entertainment world, and during football season, I want to know what my Chicago Bears are doing. — — If I read  one of the Chicago papers, I get too much general news, and don't get to find out anything that is happening locally in the Northwest suburbs of the Fox Valley. If I read one of the smaller local papers, I get a lot of local news, as far as who is... Fri, 02 Mar 2007 21:14:45 GMT http://www.viewpoints.com/Daily-Herald-review-690c LauraBelle 4
