5/5Excellent Read
The journal is well written by highly respected and reliable journalists. It is an excellent source of information.

Steeler60 · 31 Jul 2026
5/5Love it
Easy to read

Jonboysbu · 31 Jul 2026
3/5Too many sign ins
If you have an account and are signed into the app, you still have to sign in again to read certain articles. That’s an annoying time waster.

RooNixxer · 31 Jul 2026
1/5Publication fine App awful
Fix the frickin app guys. Half the stories won’t even open when I click on them. It’s been this way for around a year now.

MP2333 · 31 Jul 2026
3/5Time to Improve
I like HT but Publix’s bakery and food prep area is so much better. Time to improve.
