The update is horrible. The eEdition went from being easy to navigate and read to an absolute mess. I can't believe I actually paid for a subscription to this garbage

I got this app (and paid for the subscription) for south carolina news. I don't care about Kansas news, so stop putting it at the top of my feed. I stopped paying for the subscription after it went up 10 dollars a month! I know journalists have to get paid, I respect that, but a 10 dollar jump? I can afford 17, I can't afford 27. The notifications are also broken. If I see an interesting headline in my notifs then can't read the story because it just takes me to the homepage, now I'm frustrated.

I did certainly enjoy seeing our local news every morning with my coffee. It's what started my day. But Since the app has been updated, there is a subscription fee to read some of the news stories??? What happened and why?? My rating has gone down! I'm no longer happy with this app!
