Ancestry.com or NewpaperArchive.com problem?

See http://content.ancestry.com/iexec/?htx=Newspaper&dbid=50...

Using my surname 'Livermore', a search returns 85 hits. About hit #36, the 'Newspaper' changes from 'Sioux Valley News' to 'The Sioux Valley News' and all subsequent entries return the dreaded 'Error Processing Request' page. This was reported several times by myself to Ancestry support over the last 3 years.

Who has the problem? And when (if ever) will it be fixed?

Sorry, the subject should have read "Newspaperarchive.com".

A monthly subscription at the above site indicates that the missing images are indeed available at the above site.

Ancestry, the ball is back in your court. When will I get access to the images I paid for?

I subscribed to NewspaperARCHIVE.com a few days ago and it is great. I have found dozens of obits and articles. The search engine is an absolute dream.

So, you don't have a problem paying twice to get your information? That IS what I am talking about here.

Yes, I do have a problem with it. I only have a three-month subscription with Ancestry.com When it is time to renew, I will be seriously reevaluating.

I look at the census records here but otherwise, I mostly get information from the newspapers. Since I now get that from another sources, the question is, do I need Ancestry.com

At times I look at the family tree information. But most of the data about my immediate family is wrong or incomplete. So.
