Big city daily circulation will follow the big city populations. We could see it when we lived in the Twin City suburbs. The Mpls Star Tribune (aka Red Star) was losing circulation to the little dailies (Prior Lake American was our paper) as more people fled the city.
We took the Sunday Strib and got the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday paper for free and paid half price for the Saturday and full price for sunday, via various offers.

To: Eric in the Ozarks

I used to be a big reader of the big city dailies and even bought two Sunday ones. I barely peruse any of them anymore. I get most of my news on Fox or the internet. I will read them if they're in the lunchroom at work. I still purchase the St. Paul Pioneer Press three days a week because it's cheap and it has the N.Y. Times crossword...despite the hike to fifty cents a paper. I do subscribe to National Review and the Weekly Standard. For a leavening of semi-liberal crapola my wife subscribes to U.S. News and World Report. I also get Tiempos Del Mundo a spanish-language weekly and she still gets two small town weeklies as well as the big local daily in our area.
