Newspapers
For thirty plus years, scanning the morning papers- Washington Post, New York Times, USA Today etc. were part of a daily morning routine. Needless to say, after retiring, I did not miss the ink on my fingers from the morning scans. Like most of you, my news is found online and about the only magazine I read is the Economist. Today, while waiting for a friend and after many years, I picked up the Washington Post left behind by another reader. What a bore! It's no wonder subscriptions are off. I found nothing useful in the paper and content dated. Then, I saw a USA Today. Pretty much the same story. My opinion-RIP and if you think people will pay for an online subscription for your news source-think again.
