This is written by someone who has had a morning newspaper on his breakfast table for nearly 60 years and whose experience with e-editions has ranged from disappointed to disgusted. Thank you for listening to those of us that prefer the format of the print edition with the obvious benefits of digital delivery (especially when traveling to locations where finding a print edition is very difficult - I’m looking at you Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada).Ī Skeptic’s Take on the WSJ “ Print E-Edition And now the Print Edition app! Apparently, I wasn’t the only person that craved the print edition as an app. I thought it was a significant improvement recently when I signed up for the email that provided the pdf version of the print edition. And, I like to see who is running advertisements in the print edition. You see, the way the print edition is formatted - the size of a headline font, the location (above or below the fold), even how many columns are devoted to a story - provides key information about the significance of the article in the eyes of the editors. But, I’ve never really liked the digital version. I have had a combination digital and print subscription for years. We were even tested to ensure we knew where in the paper information appeared and on which day certain columns ran. I’ve been a loyal reader of the WSJ since my MBA Economics professor made it required reading over 25 years ago.
