I have lived in different stats and this is by far the worst paper I've brought with the new and (a big one for me) there Sunday inserts I brought 3 papers this past Sunday and after getting home I find I have NO NONE coupon inserts. Why pay more for Sunday papers and you get no more then you would on a normal day and that's not much. New printed is late by days at times. You need to get better reporters for everyday newspapers and give us inserts every Sunday to make it worth spending extra for if. I now order mine from a d... read more

It would have been nice if you had posted about the Grand Opening of Al's Garden and Gift before the opening, not only after the opening. Thanks for the great picture of the ribbon cutting in the Sunday's paper. Just wish you had also announced that he was having the opening in Friday's paper; But he had a great crowd anyway. Thanks to all who attended and hope you will continue to shop at Al's Garden and Gift.

My father in law just passed this week and while we doing arrangements the funeral director asked if we would like the obituary in the meridian star and proceeds to tell us that the normal obit is around 200 words his was 244 and that if we chose to put his obit in the meridian star it would cost $1.00 per word putting his obit at $244 �THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely disgusting if u ask me for you to charge this much for an obituary. The other local papers were $30. So it seems to me that you PREY ON THE WEAK TO... read more

Digital subscription service is unreliable and unpredictable as to service—-cancelled mine yesterday, contacted AMEX to reverse charges and will divert $13.99 monthly charges going forward to Children’s Literacy Program—-not the fault of local folks at our only daily newspaper but falls on its corporate parent

You have a carrier that is supposed to be delivering on the Chunky Duffee Road in Little Rock that does an extremely poor job. If it rains, is too cold, or she stays up too late your customers do not receive a paper. We don't want today's paper tomorrow. It seems with the decline of print publications becoming more and more obsolete, The Meridian Star would do everything in it's power to deliver in a timely manner and to keep it's customers happy. However, it doesn't matter how many times we call, this issue is never resolve... read more
