Introducing of the Honolulu Star-Advertiser

Introducing
The Next Generation
of the Honolulu Star-Advertiser
Dear Reader,
Thank you for choosing the Honolulu Star-Advertiser as your trusted, comprehensive source of
in-depth local news and information. We are proud to bring you up-to-date coverage of news, sports
and entertainment 24 hours a day, and have invested in our newsroom to be able to deliver the news
in different ways.
Those investments ensure that we can provide the information you need to be informed and to make
decisions every day, and to deliver it in ways you want it, when you want it. Whether you are looking
for the latest developments from the state Legislature and City Hall, the score of a UH game, ideas for
what to do on the weekends, or places to shop for the latest specials, we know that a half-million of
you rely on us each week.
Beginning Aug. 3, we will be introducing charges for digital
subscriptions for those who do not subscribe to the print edition.
In doing so, we will join a growing number of small and large
newspaper companies across the country that have taken this step,
including the New York Times, the Dallas Morning News and the
Omaha World-Herald. A recent University of Missouri survey found
that at the papers in the United States that don’t charge for online
news content, only 15 percent had no plans to charge in the
near future.
As with other papers that have begun charging for premium
content, we view this move as an investment in the future so that
we can continue our journalistic mission of offering a credible
report of news, information and opinion. No other organization
can match the Star-Advertiser’s breadth and depth of Hawaii news,
and revenue derived from digital subscriptions will contribute to a
continuing investment in journalists and technology.
Again, all subscribers to the Star-Advertiser print edition will have
access at no additional charge to all content at staradvertiser.com
on your computer, smartphone and tablet.
All Access will entitle you to:
* Subscriber content online: At staradvertiser.com, you will be
able to look at all stories, photos and videos, post comments on
individual stories and read what others are saying.
* e-Edition: You also will be able to access our new e-Edition.
This is an exact replication of the printed newspaper (similar to a
pdf), available on your computer’s web browser, ipad, iphone and
select e-Readers.
We value every one of our readers and appreciate the trust you have placed in us. We look
forward to serving you. If you have questions, please look at our guide to Frequently Asked
Questions at staradvertiser.com/faq. If you have further questions after reading that, please contact
our customer service staff at customerservice@staradvertiser.com or (808) 538-NEWS (6397).
