Read Our Story: The Future is Bright
When it was first published in 1952, The Daily Star became the Arab world’s first newspaper in English. Serving Lebanon and the Middle East with unrivaled local journalism in a foreign language, the paper offered the world a local view and domestic expertise on a rapidly changing region that very rarely failed to feature on top of the news agenda.
Despite interruptions during Lebanon’s Civil War, the newspaper returned to newsstands in the mid-1990s to reclaim its spot as the main source of Lebanon news in English.
The technological revolution that erupted at the turn of the century changed the ways people are consuming information and following the news. First the Internet then social media presented challenges for newspapers worldwide.
The Daily Star today is not only a newspaper. It has risen to the challenge and now offers its unique coverage of Lebanon and the region whenever and wherever you, the reader, want it.
But this costs money and financial realities mean that we have to increase our revenue to be able to continue to provide you with the best, unbiased coverage of Lebanon.
Therefore from July 10, 2015, we will be offering our worldwide readers complete access to our digital content for just $12.00 a month.

I have been reading this paper on-line for four years. This paper's in depth and intrepid journalism is why I love getting up every morning; I know that there will be reporting, no matter how mundane, that has meaning, that has consequences, and that has importance to Lebanon and, usually, to the rest of the international community. Thank You...

I try and read the article but get a link to a payment site. It's 1 USD, but for what? The article? A monthly subscription? It doesn't say. Also, I've never paid for news coverage. I think TDS could have thought this one out a little more.

Very efficient app with excellent UI. Breaking news alerts are very helpful and practical. However, devs must add a way to access the app via the breaking news stories alerts since i need to exit the alert and then open the app manually in order to read the breaking story. Keep up the good work though!

I was surprised to see the new pay as you go structure, although only $1 per month, before those nagging technical issued are addressed. I also think $1 per month is a small fee in exchange for the articles provided.

However paying to read an article is too much. Please get some advertisers to pay so we can read ur paper like before. Tks.

Instead of asking for a subscription fee maybe u should work on how to update ur news faster!!!
by R####:
TDS is hands down the best news source for Lebanon, Middle East and even US. I often learn of breaking news on TDS before I hear it from US news outlets. However, the user interface on the app needs some love. Renewing a subscription is cryptic at best, and searching for articles is very difficult. For me, it's worth the money, but they should work on improving the user experience.
