  1. It costs a bunch of bucks to do the papers in this tight economy. Unless the coupons get used there isn’t an offset to the expense. Even though it’s nice to get papers delivered, a lot of folks no longer find it “convenient” to step out in the rain and snow to pick up a soggy bag of news. The joy of reading isn’t what it used to be. And unfortunately, papers hang around and mess up a house. That was then and this is now.

    Toss in the access to news online, comics online, cable and the fact that even local papers can be VERY biased politically – well, there you go.

    The old gray mare (papers of the past) ain’t what she used to be.
