The Washington Times Reviews

by Schmoopy!

Was optimistically looking forward to an objective, balanced news provider, especially coming out of D.C. Problem is that it’s virtually impossible to actually read an article! Select an article, article opens, and THEN: horizontal banner near bottom covering ~20% of the screen; right margin ads - OK, that’s fairly common; THEN, FULL-SCREEN pop-up video ad - try to close it, then a subscription solicitation opens and the rest of the screen is greyed-out. It is absolutely the most ridiculous and frustrating website I can recall experiencing.
There is such a desperate need for the content I believe the Washington Times provides, but it’s worthless if it can never be read. Hopefully the developers actually read these reviews.

Going back to the nineties the WT has given us factual, timely information about what’s going on to either erode or support our precious United States. Along with that it has been courageous in revealing those individuals who with great zeal have contributed to our success or demise as a nation. Many times the writers have been guests on news programs furthering the truth about Issues and threats to our sovereignty.

These stellar articles that I forward to others have kept all of us informed to such a degree that I often am convinced at the end of the day that I have armed myself with the best source possible to protect us .

It’s time for me to renew my membership and let WT know by doing so that I not only believe their research but need it to keep on keeping on. I write articles myself for conservative sources and have given talks as well. Not as much now as before. Still, I’m very thankful for WTimes commitment to the foundations upon which our country is founded. Your diligence is acknowledged !

Too many ads on the screen especially of the type that expand or play animations. One has to scroll past the ads or close them in order to read the articles. Also the text is constantly shifting as ads load within the page pushing text up and down.
Personally I also believe this causes TheWashingtonTimes to freeze or crash more often than other news apps I use (NY Post, WSJ, USA Today, Rush Limbaugh, National Review).
While there are many great writers at the Times (I live for Pruden’s columns) TheWashingtonTimes makes it painful to regularly use. A redesign and better ad integration would go a long way to resolving a lot of these issues.

In terms of content, it is hard to beat the Washington Times. I love getting their take, when I have the patience to fight the ads. The latest version of TheWashingtonTimes really messed up how you view content. Each time you scroll down, to reach the next potion of an article, you’re hit with a new ad. The ad expands (or contracts) depending on how they try to fool you into reading it. One is constantly re-reading or skipping paragraphs an an effort to find where he/she left off before getting the add.
ITS INFURIATING!! Stick to the desktop version, the iOS app is absolutely terrible.

The Washington Times is a breath of fresh air when 99% of media outlets are all reporting the exact same lies. Unfortunately, TheWashingtonTimes has so many adds and popups that it makes it difficult and frustrating to navigate the articles. Hey, the adds make it a free app, but could you please just tone it down a notch? Wake up America! Stand your ground! Don’t take everything that you see or hear at face value. This is a nation OF the people, BY the people, and FOR the people! Don’t just stand there and let our “leaders” take away the last of our freedoms!!! These are public servants that think it’s our job to provide them with wealth and power. I think they are here to provide us with FREEDOM!!!!!!!! United we STAND, divided we FALL!!!

Content better, in my opinion, than the Trump Deranged Washington Post App. But, admit it, the Washington Post App is way slicker, and much less cluttered with intrusive advertising than the Washington Times App.

With the WT app, sometimes pop-up ads cover the entire screen, leaving no clue as to how to escape them. And the constantly truncated moving text frames, interspersed with constantly moving advertising frames, is one of the worst web page layouts I have ever seen.

It is a shame that such good content is presented in such an irksome and klutzy way.

by HowardPostal

The WT Website and digital newspaper is a better and fairer presentation of news than its agenda driven rivals like WP & NYT who are propagandists.

I do not enjoy the WT advertising overkill which is annoying, insecure web protocols with entirely too many unsavory, predators as sponsors/advertisers. The technical website functions are unreliable.

Unfortunately the writing depth, abilities, global circulation and resources of the Post and Times are of a much higher standard as a result attracting the brightest and best journalist minds however tormented with “Group Think” and elitism.

It would be great if they published news from reliable sources with less sensationalism. They don’t and the public suffers because of their terrorism.

I hope the WT improves over time and continues to protect the truth.

I’ve recently downloaded TheWashingtonTimes and immediately noticed that you are probably closer to CNN in your coverage than you are to FOX News. I stopped reading your newspaper during the time you became so virulently anti-Trump. While there are some very good pieces on conservatives, I’ve noticed that even though President Trump left office some years ago, you still manage to disparage him on a routine basis. I’m pretty certain that I will delete your app again real soon.

With all of the advertising opportunities, is a subscription an advantage to anything other then ‘more money’?
With the Daily Caller charging a fee to read all the news articles,
and Fox’s fixation on celebrity & trivia stories - your readership should have increased with providing news without the cover charge.
Initially, I had recommended your site to three households. Now,
I look at the headlines of the articles and proceed to the Sudoku.

The articles are actually fairly balanced compared to most of what comes out of DC. Bill Gertz is one of my favorite journalists and Charlie Hurt’s opinion writing is always a good read. But TheWashingtonTimes has issues. There’s so many ads that break up the screen. At times you can’t leave or read comments because the section is just one blank area. I can’t remember how many times I’ve have to delete TheWashingtonTimes and reinstall it because it freezes. It definitely needs a facelift and it would be nice to be able to have a feature to save favorite articles.

I left Fox News when they hired Donna Brazile, the cheater for debates. I was looking for a news source that was conservative and willing to tell both sides beside OAN and Newsmax. On Facebook I would occasionally see articles that were conservative and held truth posted by friends of mine. Not too long ago, I pursued the source of those articles and was surprised to find it was The Washington Times. I have it as an app on my IPAD, and it is one of several I check each day to get the other side from that being pushed by the MSM. Try it!

It is a delight to find a news source that presents news in a balanced way. I have grown disgusted with entities like the NYT or the LA Times. They are both predictably hostile and disapproving of every aspect of the Trump administration, including the many significant accomplishments to date. Just like millions of my fellow Americans, I want to see America prosper and strengthen. I would like American media to be fair enough to note when that happens even when that is achieved by those it opposes. ——Mike

I kept hearing about things, and seen videos now and then but never anything on the traditional, or should I say my traditional, news outlets. It was so frustrating not knowing what’s going on. I don’t care what their agenda is, I think it’s stinks that you can’t find out what’s going on in the US today. THAT IS JUST NOT SO for me anymore. I don’t even remember the random way I came upon the Washington Times but I don’t care. I’m just glad I did. Let’s just say I don’t make decisions the same way anymore, about many things.

When I am trying to read the articles, google ads are blocking the contents. I always click on ad and complain and they remove ad BUT leave a big white space and still can’t read contents of articles. I am seriously thinking of not renewing because of this problem.

by Forge On

You have been one of the few National newspapers that prints intelligent articles. Please do not start letting the dark side influence you. The liberals for the most part do not live by the blueprint for life. The Bible. They will meet Jesus one day like we all will and give an account of their lives. As a business owner that’s my two cents.😎By the way your site freezes and it it hard to get out of something you are viewing. God bless.

Washington Times is the only newspaper I read (recently) because the Baltimore Sun, “our local paper”, is extremely, politically biased, it has become a joke.
I would subscribe to WT hard copy but we’re too far away.
I’m pleased to be able to simply download TheWashingtonTimes and receive notifications and the entire fair/balanced story.
Thank you.

by CornholioSmith

Are used to pay a fortune for the Wall Street Journal, but the Washington Times is just as good and doesn’t cost anything. They have great judgment when it comes to sending news notices. I feel like I’m informed, up-to-the-minute, as long as I read the Washington Times notifications. They are one of the few publications that really develop the conservative perspective.

by Stretch4IT

I like the range of news stories covered. I’m still getting used to TheWashingtonTimes interface and am finding the scrolling and tapping sometimes causes jumps to unrelated articles suddenly, with some difficulty navigating back. Scrolling vertically sometimes leads to sliding to the right. I’m still learning but am enjoying the range of subjects covered.
Thanks!

by Lindsthewinds

It’s such a relief to be able receive News that is otherwise unreported. I mean seriously, totally, completely unreported! However, with the time being what it is, along w/division and polarization, those that need to know the facts won’t read this...unfortunately. However, I appreciate NOT being ignorant of what is actually happening behind the common, mainstream news, and the Washington Times is terrific for this. Thank you WT!

by Little Wretch

Let’s face it—News reporting is the business of clicks-generation. It is reasonable to assume the various news sites “switch sides” now and then to create click-generating controversy and to attract clickers from “the other side.” I look at a range of sites, kind of like checking the weather before leaving my home. I want to be prepared. THE WASHINGTON TIMES is relatively new to me, and it has been less insulting and less overtly manipulative than other sources. TheWashingtonTimes is easy to use. The rest is up to me.

by Kenaxel

I have no problems with Washington Times news. In fact, it’s really well done and well researched.

The problem I have is with the in-app ads. I used to be able to listen to music while reading the news. No more. As soon as I open an article, TheWashingtonTimes kills sound from any other app. On top of that, the ads are now videos that open and can’t be closed or skipped.

Please give us a chance to skip ads and stop taking over my audio! I can WATCH the news, if I wanted to. I’m READING the news because that’s the way I want to get my info. Don’t show me video in a text-based app.

by RomulusBalimakovus

The news is great, and I always appreciate the push notifications with the latest headlines. However, the advertising in TheWashingtonTimes is extremely intrusive. The text constantly moves up and down as the ads load, videos start playing and take over the screen, static full screen ad takeovers occur regularly, and TheWashingtonTimes crashes often. Making TheWashingtonTimes essentially frustrating and a pain. Although I enjoyed the news a lot, I had to uninstall TheWashingtonTimes because it was just too frustrating.

by To The Summit

I enjoy reading the Washington Times' news articles. They are well-written and don't tent to include all the drama that other news agencies enjoy writing.

Interesting how the same story's headline on the Washington Times is fact and CNN, for instance is more negative.

I would recommend anyone, no matter your political preference, read the Washington Times. Simple, clearly written, fact-based daily news.

by Heavensoon

When I want the truth I read my Washington Times!
I changed my renewal time only because my debit/credit card changes numbers every two years. Otherwise I would have automatic renewal until I pass.
Also, note that I fully agree with your editorials AND I always look forward to the Tuesday commentary by Cal Thomas and others

by COL Holt

I enjoy reading the Washington Times. However when a post appears in my Facebook feed and I open it to read it I get a pop up window asking me to purchase a subscription even though I’ve already purchased one. There is a note in the lower right corner that states already a member, log in. But when I try to login in I can’t. This is very frustrating, the only way I can view these articles is to go to the Washington Times Ap and search through all of the articles for the one that appeared in my Facebook feed. Is there anyway to fix this?

Thanks,

John Holt

You can’t get through an article with out an add popping up. Nicely written articles. When the add pops up it is nearly impossible to click off. Adds also block you searching for other articles. Not worth the trouble sometimes. You need hands the size of an elf to click the adds away

The Washington Times gives the reader a fresh perspective on the news coming from the capital. Read in combination with other news agencies that have an agenda it fills in the details that are left out in whatever other news you may read,
