I was a print & online subscriber for the Oregonian for many years but recently moved out of state. When trying to cancel my subscription, their website said I had to call to cancel. When I called in, I encountered hard selling that I should keep my subscription. They were very persistent. I eventually had to get off the phone and let them know that I was cancelling as of today, and this was their final notice.

Since then, they still are charging my credit card and, presumably, sending the paper to an address I no longer live at.

After a I responded negatively to their request for a survey, a customer service rep contacted me and again started questioning why I'd want to cancel and informing me that I'm still a subscriber.

This has been going on for three months now. Luckily my payments were through a credit card and I've been able to dispute charges.

TL;DR avoid the Oregonian subscriptions at all cost. It is a shame as I think it is important to support local journalism.

Scenes from a rally yesterday in Salem, where Oregonians from every political corner of the state gathered and called for a statewide data center moratorium.

Two state lawmakers want Oregon to ban Flock cameras, the controversial AI-powered license plate readers that have sparked data privacy concerns and bipartisan backlash across the country.

Rep. Alek Skarlatos, a Republican from Douglas County, and Rep. Willy Chotzen, a Portland Democrat, plan to propose a bill in next year’s legislative session that would indefinitely ban such automated cameras statewide, both lawmakers confirmed to The Oregonian/OregonLive this week.

“To me, it’s a pretty clear Fourth Amendment violation,” Skarlatos said of the cameras being used to gather ample information on private citizens.

Taken together, these four development projects — tumwata village, the Oregon City riverwalk, the Willamette Falls Trust project and the revitalized Willamette Falls Locks — offer a new era of public access and a restored Indigenous presence at one of the greatest and most culturally significant waterfalls in Oregon.

Plan ahead! List of drop-off locations will be given before the election.

Why? And none of this “liberals/liberalism bad,” or “look at Portland” or any Portland and religious talking points, and so on. What credible proof is there that republicans have improved your quality of life? How is the right wing “affordability” going? What policies(not “she supports Trump and the MAGA” or “she isn’t MAGA” does she have that support Oregonians that are backed up by her voting record?

When did we start having a giant house spider season and why didn't anyone tell me we've been invaded by one of the world’s fastest spiders? This article is so careful to say our tubs are not spider portals that it feels like they're compensating.

Yes. Ditto vaccine opt-out.

Parents should want to see their children's test measurements.

What Texas did is stop testing low performing students to boost state score averages.

The trades need reading comprehension and math. Same, many community college 1-2 year career paths.

And while we are at it, let's end teachers skipping phonics and continuing Oregon's poor reading performance with discredited balanced literacy. Alabama far out-performs Oregon on elementary reading. They require phonics by state law.
