Minneapolis Star Tribune

Pros: Phenomenal comics
Cons: Typographical errors

What I read from cover to cover of any newspaper are the Variety, Taste and Home & Garden sections and I've found no other newspaper excels in these areas as much as the Strib.

I'm usually only a front page reader of the news sections in any...

Pros: Overall, not a great paper, but decent for a town this size.
Cons: When it was locally owned, they published my cogent and witty (in my not so humble opinion) letters to the editor 5 or 6 times a year. Now that it's owned by a bigger company, they rarely do. The search algorithm at the online www.startribune.com leaves m

Like many mid-sized cities in the U.S. that used to have several newspapers, Minneapolis is down to one, The Minneapolis StarTribune. That’s true literally, but we’re not called the Twin Cities for nothing. The Saint Paul Pioneer Press is also available...

Pros: Has good job possibilities
Cons: Terrible marketing methods

The Minneapolis Star Tribune may be better to look for a job in their classifieds along with buying or selling an item though their sales methods i find somewhat questionable, for instance I only buy the newspaper on sunday and if i do its usually the...

Pros: good comics (pathetic no?)
Cons: no credibility

I am certainly a conservative man, and this paper, the most read in my area, is not one that serves my interest. Sure, I might read it for the comics, news of the weird, or a few other things. But I cannot read the rest.

The Star does have a...

Pros: Writers, Columns
Cons: Sid Hartman

As a subscriber to the Star Tribune paper I will say that I love this paper and I think they do a great job. I live in Minnesota and get the Star Tribune every day. I mainly read the Sports, Business, and Metro/State sections of the paper and I think...

Pros: better coverage than Pioneer Press
Cons: has to compete with Pioneer Press

In the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, you have two choices of newspaper. The two choices are the Minneapolis Star Tribune and the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Clearly, the better choice is the Minneapolis Star Tribune. Having lived in the Twin...

Pros: Professional
Cons: a little too busy

This newspaper is 130 years old and growing gracefully. Sure, just like any other news read, we don't know if the facts are correct or not but they try hard to keep us informed. Like any other read you can only believe half of what you read. Everyone...

Pros: My birds like it, and the kids can put their wet muddy boots on it insteas of the tile in the hallway.
Cons: They will sell your mailing address and phone number to solisitors. So if you have a unlisted # you just gave it out!

I think I know just the audience the Strib is written for, their percieved notion of just who is a susbcriber of their paper (whick my parakeets just love to read more than I do) is the white, upper middle class man/woman. The like that drive SUV's, only...

Pros: Dan Barreiro
Cons: Sid Hartman

How can you pretend to be objective when your whole reason for being is to bash conservatives. The opinion page is full of liberal speak without ever once giving the other sides perspective. All I ask is that the paper be fair to all readers, but that...

Pros: sports and impartiality
Cons: Columns not fun

The Star Tribune is one of those newspapers that do not support any political party. And that is great from an ethical point of view and from a comercial point of view too. This way both conservatives and liberals get to read the same newspaper. However,...
