Do you still read the newspaper?

Every now and then but I get it from there websites

I think the paper version will still be around, or maybe I am hopeing

I like to use the comics as gift wrap:smilewinkgrin:

 

I receive the statewide newspaper here in Arkansas and the local newspaper.

 

I read the newspaper every day except Sunday - and I've done this since age 13. I grew up in a diplomat's household with parents very aware of current events (part of my father's job).

I find the Sunday paper to be mostly fluff and it costs too much, so I just get Mon-Sat.

I don't like using the Internet for news as the graphics are too much for my computer and it takes too long. Plus, I like reading the paper while eating breakfast, and eating at my computer is not something I enjoy doing.

I don't think regular newspapers will become a thing of the past -- too many people like to read on trains and buses to work, while eating breakfast, or during a break.

 

==I read local, and national, newspapers online. I think that is the direction newspapers are heading.

 

I get the statewide newspaper, partially because it's hard to get much arkansas news otherwise, and partially because of the Sunday coupons.

 

I read the paper daily. If you get your news from just one source, you're almost certainly being misinformed.

Good heavens! The comics are the paper!

I read several papers daily...it takes about 5 minutes alongside my morning coffee at the corner shop. The shop tears off the date, and I get yesterday's paper to-day for free. Did you really think I would pay $2.00 for a daily rag?

Cheers,

Jim

PS. I prefer my English rag which comes once a week at £2.00

 

I like gettin my news from more than one source: Indianapolis Star, USA Today, Chicago Tribune, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, etc. I sometimes read foreign newspapers online, such as Canadian, Australian, French, German newspapers, and others.
