Weekday newspaper circulation has continued to drop this year, as every major daily except USA Today and The Wall Street Journal, who both reported modest gains, reported declines, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulation.
According to the Associated Press, “Newspaper circulation has been on a declining trend since the 1980s,
but the pace of decline has picked up in recent years as more people go to the Internet for news, information and entertainment.”
Daily papers in large metropolitan areas suffered the most, with Dallas, Atlanta and Minneapolis posting the worst numbers.
