What’s the best source of local news in Warren County?

The verdict is in and it’s your hometown Southern Standard.

In business since 1879, your hometown newspaper has been transitioning into the digital age for decades. Our website, Facebook page, and Twitter feed are available for regular news and sports updates and have developed a tremendous following.

Now we have a Southern Standard app that can be downloaded to your phone to enhance your online experience even more.

The app can be downloaded for free from your app store and it gives you access to the Standard website without having to type in www.southernstandard.com.

“Many of our readers are finding the advantages of a digital subscription to the Standard,” said publisher Patricia Zechman. “We are fully aware the news industry is changing and people expect to receive stories on a real-time basis. Our online content is updated regularly, sometimes several times a day, so it’s a great resource for staying informed. For readers who enjoy our print edition, that continues to be popular and a source of emphasis. Our newsroom staff works around the clock to produce a local newspaper that’s second to none.”

With the Southern Standard app, users will receive notifications about breaking news and all the same functionalities and features already available on southernstandard.com. The app tweaks content slightly for a more user-friendly format.

The popular e-edition of the Southern Standard is fully accessible within the app so those who like to view the paper as it comes out in print will be able to view it within the app.

Access to the app is provided free of charge to Standard subscribers. If you’re a subscriber, just call our office at 473-2191 to receive your password at no charge. An online-only subscription to the Standard can also be purchased and that includes full app access.

It’s a great world we’re living in and the Southern Standard is here to cover it.
