JonnyJonnyRowe 955 Posted July 23 Three times in about three days I've tried to read an article on the Pink'un, to be met by the great wall of Archant (I know its Newsquest now, they should do something about the footer on this forum). Only to find that I could simply head to the Evening News or Eastern Daily Press website to read the article I wanted. I have no idea if there is also subscriber exclusive content, but if an article is already replicated in two other publications for free then is there really any point in putting those specific articles behind a paywall on here?

I believe some articles only require subscription by having an account, then there's extra content available only to those that pay. I'd assume those articles you mention were the former. I usually just wait for someone on here to get outraged about a given story and work out the rest from there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was much the same, but saw an offer the other day for the first year for £15 and decided I might as well subscribe…that didn’t feel too much. I’ll say one thing, it makes articles a lot easier to read! Edited July 23 by Branston Pickle 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
