    We have talked often in this space over the years about how The State is adapting to a new digital landscape that has forever changed our business model. We have gone from a print-based company with a presence online to a digitally-focused operation slowly de-emphasizing the printed product. Today, we lean even further into that transformation. On April 22, we will transition to a 24/7 digital product with printed editions on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.

NEW/ A Texas businessman made national news over the weekend with a historic $237 million donation to Florida A&M. But some are new questioning if it's legit, partly because of his prior failed donation to CCU https://t.co/wH0jl73bYk
