Newspaper circulation continues to decline:
NEW YORK (AP) — Weekday circulation at U.S. daily newspapers fell 2.1 percent in the latest six-month reporting period, according to figures released Monday, in the latest sign that people are turning to the Internet and other media for news.
The Dallas Morning News is almost in free-fall, losing 14 percent of its subscribers.
The only bright spot for print papers:
Online readership of newspaper sites continues to grow. The NAA pointed to recently released data from Nielsen//NetRatings showing a 5.3 percent increase in the number of people who visited newspaper Web sites in the first quarter of 2007.

If we don’t buy the newspapers and save a tree, wouldn’t that be considered a carbon offset?
I made this comment on FauxNEWS this afternoon:
Wino, look at this list of top 20 newspapers’ circulation numbers. Notice that the liberal rags are down, while the more conservative newspapers are up? Especially the New York Post. Interesting, huh?

Nothing to see here folks. Keep going on your daily lives. Ignore the fatman behind the curtain. Be on your way.
I can’t wait to see the NYTimes fold.

Don’t worry, it’s okay. And, by the way, good catch on the New York Post! That’s what I would be reading if I were exiled to The Big Apple.
