I have a few ideas for a regional/national newspaper.

If you want to cover several states or perhaps the entire country, you could have local bureaus throughout the region you wish to publish and sell the newspaper. For example, there could be a Seattle Bureau, a Walla Walla bureau, a Boise bureau, etc.

The paper could consist of four sections: National News, Local News/Lifestyle, Sports/Business, and Classifieds.

The National News would be the same for all the bureaus.

The local news/lifestyle section would be written and put together by each bureau. This way each edition of the paper will be different in each bureau as it will focus on its own local news.

The sports/business section would encompass both national and local sports and business news.

For the classifieds, each bureau could sell local advertising while the national HQs could sell ads for the entire nation.

Feel free to reply with any comments or questions.

Well, I'm more concerned with Washington State, but nothing says that others couldnt' step up to the plate in other areas and pick up the ball and run with it. Eventually, it could lead to a national project that shares resources...

It's an idea :)
