    You are assuming that journalistic integrity actually matters. That doesn't seem to be the way things are going.

      You mean the one where i have to close out 7 ads and 3 prompts to pay for a subscription to read a 1 paragraph article?

        "Follow" on Twitter and its $0 for articles. Their are actually printed newspapers around this country that are doing well. The ones owned by McClatchy are not part of that group. What they have done to the Eagle is pathetic.

                Just the links to articles from the Eagle's main pages, not the entire kansas.com site. I just figured that out this year.

                Also, use AdBlock with your browser. I tried using Internet Explorer for some extra reads. I don't have an Ad Blocker on Explorer, and the site was absolutely unusable with all the ads, pop-ups, delays while ads loaded, etc. The Eagle did a really bad job adjusting to the digital age and still hasn't figured that out. $100 a year while drastically reducing the product does not appear to be a workable business plan.

                            There goes my digital subscription to the Eagle. Even though I haven't lived in Do-dah for more than 35 years, I still have family and friends in the area and I always liked knowing what was happening. But I especially subscribed for all things Shockers. Not any more.

                              I was worried that the decline of the Eagle was hoping to run Suellentrop off, apparently I should have been thankful! Especially since their inability to actually deliver the paper reliably meant I dropped my subscription earlier this year.

                                The same husband & wife team has delivered our paper the last 17 years. They did a fantastic job unfortunately Sep 10 is there last day. We may have to drop our subscription soon. Just something about having a paper and a cup of coffee in the morning that I'm sure I will miss.
