Your life is busy. Your time is valuable. The Statesman Journal staff works hard to keep you informed of breaking news, give you the scoop on the latest restaurant openings, take you along on adventures into the wilds of Oregon, help you cheer on your local high school athletes, and take you deeper into issues like the environment, politics and education.
Our team of reporters, photographers and editors is locally based. We live and work here just like you, and we know the importance of a robust local newspaper.
So why should you subscribe to the Statesman Journal? Here are five of many reasons:
Subscriber-exclusive stories
Subscribers to the Statesman Journal have access to subscriber-exclusive stories. Recent stories have included a look at how vacation rentals in Salem are being used for crime, a peek inside the new Rabbit Cellar Lounge in West Salem, how Oregon’s outdoors is going cashless due to a spike in vandalism, and the latest takeaways from local high school basketball.
