Letters to the Editor for Sept. 24 page 2
Star content changesMy wife and I are very unhappy about the changes showing in the paper. Several of our favorite cartoons are missing, as are the familiar crossword puzzles that are not too difficult.We don’t want to spend more time looking at the computer. Would much rather sit at the table in the morning with coffee, read the paper and discuss the contents. We have been subscribers since 2004, but these changes, along with others made earlier, make us think about stopping our subscription.
The Sunday paper has several sections that we like including the Parade Magazine that we read every week.A poor decisionIt is with regret that I am canceling my subscription to the Star. It was a poor decision to eliminate some of the good comics — Mutts, Adam, Lola—and replace them with stale ones: Peanuts ; Garfield ; and For Better or Worse, which I grew up on but I will now die before Grandfather in the script does.
Strike No. 3. Not sure when the next bone-headed decision will be made, but when it comes my subscription will be cancelled.End of an eraMy parents were civil employees of the federal government during WWII. They worked in a weather observation station in Cochise. Every day my dad would walk into the desert along the railroad tract to pick up his daily paper after it was thrown from the passing train. That is how long I have experienced having the newspaper in my home.
Bookstore sales are increasing for paper and e-books. Paper books are still the most popular format and publishers have learned that it’s not an either-or decision for readers. I have subscribed to a newspaper for 60 years, but may adjust my budget to save that money spent on subscribing. If it were not for Jim Click, Ashley Furniture and Sam Levitz you would not have enough revenue to print a daily paper.Pages no longer funAs a longtime subscriber to the Arizona Daily Star, I am very disappointed about your decision to change the comics and the crossword puzzle formats. I have been enjoying reading the comics and working on the crossword puzzles.
Comic fiascoI surrender! I’m giving up. I can’t fight it any longer. For the past two years, every time we have received a notice of a rate increase for our Daily Star subscription my husband has insisted that we drop our subscription and just read the news online as all modern folks are doing. The only argument I have been able to make to resist his suggestion is that I might be able to read the news online, but I can’t get my daily dose of humor or my daily intellectual challenge online.
