I am extremely irritated when I buy the Port Isabel Press and begin to read an article I am very interested in reading only to be referred to another page that the article is allegedly continued on. THEN, lo and behold it is not there! I then search page by page…NO CONTINUATION OF THE ARTICLE!!! i.e. “Windstorm rates spike 5 percent…See RATES, Page 11A”. (This has happened numerous times on other items and I am aggravated to say the least.) I tried to go online to finish reading the article, BUT it states I have to subscribe to the online E edition to read the rest of the article! That is absurd!!!
