Do you read a newpaper?
« on: July 09, 2011, 12:26:35 pm »
Just wondering how many people still read the newspaper every day or even just once a week.
I do still get the Sunday paper however all I really am interested in are the the front page, comics and the coupons. The coupons actually more then cover the cost of the paper Sadly the majority of the news I get via the internet or tv.
How about you?
Be grateful for what you have and you will receive more than you ever expected

If you believe it you can achieve it.

   Do you work for a news paper department..? OR is this a real question.

I only get the paper on the weekends for the coupons.  If I want the news, I will watch it on TV or look at it online.

We still get the paper every day and I will usually thumb through it 3 or 4 times a week. I prefer to get my news from the paper vs TV unless there is something pressing I'm looking for....flash flood warnings or something like that.

I get the majority of news now on the internet.  I still watch the noon news on TV and try to get the Sunday paper for the coupons and articles.

I still get the daily and Sunday newspaper and really prefer it.  I don't trust most of the tv media to be honest and unbiased and the same goes for most of the internet.  The newspaper goes much more in depth with most of the news.

I read the newspaper at my workplace, someone buys it everyday and leave it somewhere around. I also read the online versions sometimes but just because some news include videos. I prefer the printed version, maybe because I don't have the clutter at home. I don't watch a lot of news on tv because sometimes they make me sick in my stomach talking and talking about the same things over and over (Aka Casey Anthony). If I'm watching news on tv I do it first time in the morning because that's when they talk about the important things with the intention of just informing, not commenting.

I read our local weekly paper. When someone leaves one in the break room, I read it. I also read news on the internet sometimes.
