Every Sunday
Yes The Seattle Times and the New York times. Sometimes NY post for page six.
I do because you can't access our town's online paper unless you subscribe to the real paper. Plus I read NYC papers and other sports news papers online
There's no need to, unless you're fond of black ink on your hands a stack of papers in the corner for recycling.
Oyf course every morning
Oyf course every morning
I love reading my news online, but every few months or so, I go to my "second hometown" and pick up their weekly paper for 75 cents. (I used to work there, so there's that nostalgic link, too.)
Yep. The Wall St Journal. I read a bunch of other newspapers online.
Nope but I do the crosswords
Only the WSJ, everything else, I read online.
Do you still ask if we read newspapers?
Do the ads counts?
Yes, our local paper. The newspaper is pretty good, but their web site sucks a pickle. Plus I want to support it and the web site is free, so I feel I ought to throw them at least a little dough.
Yes every morning I walk to my bodega and get a fresh NYPost and read it with my coffee because that's my routine and it makes me happy.
Only on Sunday otherwise it's online
Everything online. Mostly eBooks, too. I had to buy a copy of a print newspaper the other day because they did an article about me (she says, modestly) and I was shocked at how expensive they've become. I guess trucking around all that paper - to the plant, from the plant, to the recycler, costs big bucks.
Every morning I read our local paper. There's so much there that I'm never going to see/read online, plus I prefer the unplugged version, though I can read it on my iPad too.
I like the feel of the newspaper in my hand and don't want to read everything on a computer.
I get WSJ every time I fly. It is my favorite ritual.
No. You don't have to wait until tomorrow's paper to know what the story is; now you can just follow reporters on Twitter.
My younger brother was a neighborhood carrier. Everybody was cancelling their subscriptions at such a rapid rate, it wasn't even worth him doing it any longer.
Who wants read that article about Nutty? *raisers hand* Me! Me! I Do!
Newspaper? You mean newsblog?
Yes. Firstly they cover local news and events. When did CNN cover the local school board? Secondly I find that the internet news sites are great for headline news but often I find the most interesting things on the back pages. Things that might be on the internet but which I would never have thought to be interested in. In other words, there is value in news editors.
I used to subscribe to the Strib but it started collecting in a corner. Now I read everything online and get alerts from different news outlets. I basically watch the local news in the morning and the national news at night. I listen to NPR for most of the day and catch up on other newspapers online during lunch or on breaks.
I still get the Sunday Blade for the coupons and ads..and to have access to the digital format--the only way you can get it for free is if you buy at least one day. $5 a month for a Sunday only subscription is good for me and I do like the local info and since I'm old..the Obituaries...lol
The local paper, for sure. I read the Press of Atlantic City when I'm staying with my inlaws down the shore and it's there at the house. It's sad. The death of the newspaper. My husband and I worked in newspapers for YEARS. We don't even subscribe to a daily anymore. We got the Philly Inquirer for a really long time, but that paper sucks. They're so politically biased it drives me insane.
And we have SO many amazing friends who have worked at newspapers. So many of them have left the business though. It is no way to make a living. The measly pay and stress alone will kill ya.
You should support your local news organizations. At the very least to stay informed and to keep up with the obituaries. (I live in a small town; obits are huge.) Actually, the most popular page in a newspaper is the obit page. For reals.
It's kind of sad though that so many people are not informed about what is going on right in their community.
Election Day is still my fave day of the year. It's like my super bowl. You can take the gal out of the newsroom; but you can't take the newsroom out of the gal.
My level of drinking and cursing has greatly diminished since retiring from newspapers. LOL.
Toronto Star and my cup(s) of tea every morning. And yes, more for the human interest stories than up to the minute news. And the obits. Found out my ex-neighbour's uncle died the other week -read it after the funeral- sent a card and she said it made her day to hear from us.
So funny, was just hvng this conversation with my 11 and 9 yr old grandchildren! Yes u can read online for all info, or watch news channel, but i like my good old fashioned newspaper. Ive been reading the paper at breakfast for 59 years now, and i like it just fine.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette every morning
I adore my NYTimes...The SF Chronicle has been renamed the Comical because it's so bad. A Sunday Times lasts me all week and it's better than a fresh Mercury or Comical.
I gave up our local paper a number of years ago because the quality dropped into the cellar. When I visit DC, I read the Washington Post every morning. I read the Wash. Post and New York Times online now, though I have to limit the NYT because they charge you after 15 articles.
I get the local paper for free on Thursdays with the flyers for non subscribers. I am contemplating getting the digital edition.
Nope but they're great for craft projects and lining bird cages!
I've never really been one for reading the paper (save for the want ads!), but I will N.E.V.E.R. give up reading real books.
I read a bunch online and occassionally my parents' Star Tribune and the local rag.
Yes I read my 2 local papers both out once a week, and I read the city paper some Thursdays (local event issue) and Sundays (weekend edition). I sometimes get the Globe & Mail on Saturdays. My news purchases are pretty sporadic but I do prefer paper.
Yep. Local paper all the time and National Post on Saturday.
