A: Most people still like to grab a cup of coffee, kick back in the recliner and read The News-Journal. There's Just something about a printed newspaper. So we prefer to put our efforts in the printed version. We hope you'll subscribe to the printed version. I mean, what a deal! It's 50 cents per week inside Hoke County, and when you're done with the paper you can wrap fish or line the bird cage. Subscribe today! Then, when you go on vacation to the beach you can read the top few stories to hold you until you get home.

If you really want to research old stories, microfilm versions of The News-Journal dating to the 20s are in the Hoke Public Library. If you really really really need to access an electronic version dating back to around 1988, contact our alleged general manager:
A: Yes! You can either email the story using this link:
or attatch it to an email and send it to our editor:

If you have a question about this, email our alleged general manager:
A: Yes
