Putting Newspapers on the Kindle

Your Kindle is not only for reading digital books and magazines but also digital newspapers including The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, USA Today and other newspapers. Accessing and downloading newspapers to Kindle is done via the Kindle Store and doesn't require any special plug-ins or add-ons. You can purchase one copy of a newspaper, if desired, or purchase a monthly subscription that delivers the newspaper to your Kindle each morning. Newspaper subscriptions vary in cost as well as single-copy purchases.
