The Golden Transcript is no longer providing free access to its articles online!

January 6, 2009

I'm still hearing from a lot of people who are frustrated at not finding Golden Transcript articles on this site. Golden.com is not affiliated with the Golden Transcript.  I provided links to the paper while they were posting their articles for free on their website, but now they're not.  You can still read Transcript articles if you pay them for an online subscription.  Personally, I did buy an online subscription and I hope that you will too.  The Golden Transcript is a valuable and venerable Golden institution, and they need subscribers to stay in business.

Thursday 10/22/09

Sorry gang!  The Golden Transcript is no longer posting its content for free.  You can subscribe to The Transcript and 7 other suburban newspapers for $30/year.  We hope you'll consider doing so.  The Golden Transcript has served our community for 140 years, and we'd like to see it stay around for another 140!  Subscribe to the Golden Transcript online.
