Blame Gatehouse Media for the problems

Gatehouse Media is the worst thing that ever happened to The Columbus Dispatch. Editorially and journalistically, it’s still a great paper, but both the print and electronic versions have suffered from disastrous technical problems since the acquisition. Add to that the abysmal customer service department—you can’t even call and talk to a representative after noon (!)—and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to justify continuing my subscription. If it weren’t the only viable source for local news in Columbus (the TV stations’ web coverage is even spottier than their broadcasts), I’d have dropped my subscription long ago.

Horrible App, Bad Stories

I downloaded the app but there was no search feature. First fail. I finally found the article I was looking for. It was utterly useless and misleading as it provided less than nothing. Second fail. I would imagine the paper itself is not doing well. The app alone is not great. But bad material just makes this a total fail on every level. Who puts the title "Stargazing apps can help bring the universe to your smartphone" then tells the reader to go into the Google search engine and do a search on "stargazing apps". I'm an astronomer and know this isn't even helpful advice to the average person. The rest of the article was no better. The writer was beyond lazy.
But I give this app four stars because it has no search feature, no Science section, no ability to comment on articles, and overall a very crappy app.

Worthless and Frustrating

My login that I have had for a while doesn’t register my subscription that I have had for multiple years and the app jumps just when I find a story to read. Based on other reviews I have read I don’t understand why these issues haven’t been fixed! The monthly subscription is a lot of money and I can’t even get my paper delivered around the same time consistently. I get more emails saying my paper may be late when no major story is pending. Get your act together or sell the paper to a company that cares about their customer!!
