Daily Star Kuwait: Stagnant Edition

Daily Star Kuwait: Stagnant Edition
[click for larger pic]

Since I began my subscription of Daily Star, I have noticed that certain important sections of the Kuwait edition are stagnant/stale. If you get a chance to look at the Classifieds section in the Kuwait part of the paper, you can see that there are certain ads that have been appearing on the same position, same style for quite sometime. I could count most of them on my fingers namely; KLM passengers to carry pets, Kach School ad, Pajero 2005 ad, Isuzu 2003 ad.

Even their site has this poll on some Hydra article they must have put in Oasis magazine, which has been around for as long as I can remember [probably weeks].
Come on DSK guys, get some fresh content off the ground, get your sales team out there and get some quality classifieds.

BTW the best part about DSK is the International Herald Tribune edition that comes free with it.

    The only value for money in DSK subscription is IHT. Apart from that, subscribing to DSK for local content, has been a big mistake on my part.

    I have a subscription as well and the best part is getting IHT. It’s the reason I subscribed in the first place and I’ll renew my subscription just to get IHT. I suppose for local news, Arab Times is the way to go. And you’re right about the classifieds section – same ones every single day for months now it seems.

    There is a very good reason why the DS is stagnant! Their General Manager has been in the Central Jail for the last 3 weeks!
