My 90 year old father will get out in traffic and drive to get a USA Today, every day. He gets the Milwaukee Journal in a subscription deal that gives him full digital access, and has iPad and laptops galore, yet never reads a paper that is not in the physical form of...paper. My in-laws, of the same age, read their paper over and over again until the folds are creases about to wear through.

That is what’s left of the newspaper business - the dying audience that spent so long in their audience that they cannot leave. What is that, those presently 78+?

The spouse has to absolutely have the Sunday edition of The (daily worker) State paper delivered.

Another copy still shows up at the house we moved from and are getting ready to put on the market soon.

I chuck it in the trash.

The daily worker has been told before not to deliver there.
