The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette has a new iPad subscription
program, the paper reported.
The move
comes amid a decision to stop daily delivery of the Democrat-Gazette's print
edition in a number of Arkansas
markets.
Instead of
printed papers, Publisher Walter E. Hussman Jr. says, the Democrat-Gazette will
provide subscribers in the markets a free iPad, which can display the paper in
digital form. The monthly subscription cost won’t change, the paper said.
Beginning
May 13, Democrat-Gazette subscribers in the markets will still get a printed
newspaper on Sundays, and every day they will get the digital replica delivered
to their computer, tablet or smartphone. They will also have full access to the
paper's website, arkansasonline.com, according to the Texarkana Gazette.
The
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette staff will have workshops to on how to use the iPads
and will make trips to the homes of people who can’t make the workshops, the
paper has said.
