the old folks will still read the news papers ...it's a kind of aquired taste that digital medias will never win over our over the 60s folks ....and it's this very voters PAP is targeting as their vote banks ...it's also an aquired kind of vote banks ...kind of known devil better than an unknown angel ....there is always a residual demand for sun set industries including our SPH ...perhaps our newspaper should now be printed in large fonts mostly about matters relating to old people's taste

local press is no longer worth reading!
not only readers are spoilt for better choices despites nonsensical writeups, but it is the trashes sph worships as releasing media to the public!
they have closed down free speech, investigational topics and remained bias instead of neutral for the public, tools for the filthy uppers than decent commoners
it has become kindergaten papers annoucing to brainwash ppl, what gahmen wants our kids and their aged parents to read
to many sound adults, these kindergaten papers not even worth than toilet papers, maybe trying hard to be kacham puteh wrappers
maybe switch name from sph to kph (kacham puteh holding).....

SPH under Ng Yat Chung. Destined to fail.

Our twin problems for a long time were no press freedom and no competition. Add digitalisation now. It's the end for SPH.

Government should pay for 3 months Netflix for all our seniors. So much more stuff to watch. Watch until they won't want to leave the house.

In this day and age, even a stray dogs would prefer quality paper to shit on, and find Straits Times paper too wanting.

Two points to point.

1. Donald Low shared a superb article. Very good insights. Here's more politically-polite version, still excellent.


2. I think Donald Low sounded like someone here who said the same things about Sumiko and Warren firing the less obedient journalists. Is Mr Low one of us?

Nothing to worry when BG Ng yat chung in control.

I sincerely hope he can be our PM.

I have no problem with pro-establishment newspapers, but please do it with some journalistic flair and creativity.

Wrong.

In a de facto one party regime, pro-establishment newspapers are poison. Unfortunately, the poison is also the only available mainstream choice for you.

Until Sinkies start getting outraged by this instead of shrugging their shoulders like chumps, nothing will change. Start by voting with your wallet and boycotting. If you want to visit their news websites, use an ad blocker. And to hell with their paywalls.
