  1. 5/5Online Subscription Troubles

    Three times I subscribed to Newsday digital services, the count is not over a lifetime, years or several months. The 3 attempts were actual agreements I accepted to pay within a few months. It was more times I tried logging in after creating passwords that were saved. It seems like Newsday soon reject my subscriptions and state they have no record of my accounts. The Long Island newspaper was a part of my life growing up and residing in Suffolk County. They have an excellent staff with talented reporters, photographers, and writers. Newsday investigated and produced prize-winning reports, series, articles, and videos. The establishment won major, editorial awards. Nonetheless, I am much discouraged by the experience as a subscriber. Many thousands people might be having a great time with Newsday. But, I had enough; the only task for me is to make sure they don’t charge my credit card.

  2. 5/5Great local newspaper, app seems to be stable

    This is the best local newspaper, with little bias in reporting unlike the national news sources. Over all the years, they have always provide excellent local investigative news reporting. When I travel and read various other local papers, Newsday is no comparison. Need to continue to support excellent reporting. Thankfully, the app seems stable again after the buggy iOS 13 release. I love the fact that when I’m reading the newspaper edition, I can click on the article and it reformation it to a much easier format for the device. IMHO, they have nicely address electronic news while still trying to keep the paper addition going. I just wish their electronic subscription cost is less than the paper subscription edition.

  3. 5/5Reliable source for news

    I’ve been reading Newsday every morning for 40 years. Your coverage of current events and daily news, especially national and international is, in my opinion accurate, with details that allow me, the reader to have insight to facts. In today’s political climate, accurate information is vital, if I am to conduct an intelligent discussion with someone. As I read the articles; I’m impressed by how Newsday explains how government functions. Opinion is left for the editorial pages & I’m fine with that. Please continue accurate, in depth analysis of current events. For many of us, accurate information helps us to continue learning. Newsday has an opportunity & responsibly to educate the reader. Thank you

  4. 5/5They Report the News

    I try to read Newsday and the Post every day. Newsday just reports the news, and “The Post” is so far to the right they cannot report the news objectively, consequently complete bias reporting. Sometimes I read “The Post” it’s like reading Facebook so I rely on “Newsday for accurate reporting therefore the main reason I read and rely on Newsday. Ed The Stanner Everything that has been written above is true but the main reason can be recapitulated into one word why I read Newsday that I am not getting with most medians today and that word is “TRUTH”.

  5. 3/5Newsday...stick to reporting

    Having read Newsday on LI even as a child in the 60’s, it is usually well-written and mostly accurate reporting. It’s great to have local coverage and the paper does a really good at that. The many sections are nicely organized. The liberal bias however is pervasive, insulting and historic. This does not truly represent Long Island’s politics, which is a republican majority. Newsday would be more successful if they were able to remove that bias against republican tenets. The key to being a great news organization is intelligently presenting both or all viewpoints in such a way that different thoughts are neither right nor wrong. Unfortunately I never see that in Newsday but I am still a loyal subscriber even after all these years, holding out hope!
