This is an excellent newspaper and I have been enjoying it immensely. This Kindle newspaper actually has a few photos printed in it, so that it is not 100% text. The articles are interesting and well-written.
I like the Herald Tribune since it gives the reader a broader world view of the news than typical US media outlets currently provide. It may be interpreted as slightly liberal by some, but I think it is quite balanced overall and very informative.

The International Herald Tribune
When I used to go to Europe I would seek out a copy of the International Herald Tribune every morning, and usually read it from cover to cover. It simply was a superior newspaper, covering not only USA news but world news, business, sports, etc. Coming back home I would actually feel a sense of loss at having to read our local paper.
So I was thrilled when the Kindle edition of the International Herald Tribune came out and I immediately subscribed. The IHT is as good as ever. Excellent, well written articles. In-depth analysis of world events. It’s all there. My advice: try the trial subscription for two weeks; I bet you end up cancelling the Times, etc., and go with the International Herald Tribune.

Since being offered on the Kindle, I’ve purchased one or two issues of the International Herald Tribune. It’s a good paper, with a broad international perspective. Just be aware that it’s mainly a compilation newspaper that pulls its stories and features from the world’s prominent newspapers and news sources, including many you may already subscribe to on your Kindle. But if you don’t already get items like the New York Times Latest News blog and some of the dollar-a-month wire service news blogs (or won’t mind the slight redundancy in articles if you do), go for it. Like the handful of other Kindle newspapers I’ve experienced, the Kindle edition of the International Herald Tribune is laid out well, is easy to navigate, and features a generous allotment of photographs. I’d be tempted to buy it more often, or maybe even subscribe, if the subscription and/or single-issue price was just a bit lower. But, of course, that won’t be an issue with everyone.
Note: Amazon frequently updates the presentation and functionality of Kindle blogs and periodicals, so as this review gets older, it may no longer accurately describe the current version of this product.

This is a great newspaper, particularly on the Kindle. As others have stated, it has global reach. You won’t find U.S. domestic issues here, but you will find a good deal of U.S. political/financial information.
Nicely laid out. Improvements that could be made have more to do with the Kindle itself than anything about the paper. There are a few photos … just enough to be interesting. They are of medium quality but do break up the text.
Because it is so easy, I find myself reading on a much wider range of global topics. So I spend a lot of time with IHT, and sometimes struggle to keep up with the issues as they roll in.
I think this is a very balanced paper … neither extreme right nor extreme left. I have not read anything in over a month of subscribing that made me go “ah hah, someone has an axe to grind here” … something the parent company (NYT) often triggers in me. They seem to have taken a hands off approach to IHT, perhaps increasing emphasis on US content, but not (so far as I can see) injecting a lot of bias.
The one paper I would very much like to see on Amazon is the Financial Times. That plus IHT would give you pretty much everything you need to know about what is going on in the world. I also read Newsweek for a bigger picture overview - that fills in some of the domestic issue gaps. And I read extensively a number of well-known news websites and blogs, on my notebook.
Very worthwhile reading for the cost. It will broaden your outlook if you read articles that formerly would have been of little interest to you. The articles are well-written and brief enough for the reader to inhale a lot of information in a short period of time.
No crossword though :-(

I was happy to have the New York Times, but I couldn’t keep up with the amount of information delivered daily. The International Herald Tribune captures the information I need. I haven’t canceled my New York Times yet, but I getting ready to before the next billing cycle.
