Journal transitions to digital subscriptions
Placeholder Image

As some of our readers already noticed we have recently implemented a subscriber platform or paywall to our turlockjournal.com website.  As business changes so does the delivery and platform of our news operations. 

When viewing the stories on our website you will be directed to register and subscribe.  If you are currently a print subscriber you will need to create a profile where the phone number matches the number on your current account and you will gain access as part of your print subscription.  If you encounter any problems while registering, give us a call and we will make sure the phone number in our system matches the one you are trying to use.

If you are not a current print subscriber you will be directed to our subscription page.  Options range from a one week subscription to an annual subscription.  You can also sign up for a bundled package that includes home delivery of the printed newspaper.

In either case, once your profile is created all you need to do is login to view all of the local content on our website.  Through all of this we will continue to provide local community news as your hometown newspaper.  We will strive to earn your subscription as a conduit to our community with a local presence of reporters, photographers, editors, designers and other staff in our Turlock office.

Thanks again for supporting your hometown newspaper.
