I'm guilty of only being interested in newspapers for the coupons on Sundays.
I know I should read the news, but I just never do.

Once in a blue moon! My wife orders the daily and weekend newspaper and she reads it. I normally look through it once and awhile if I am looking for something like what place the NY Yankees are in or local goings on, but that maybe on a once a month basis.

I should follow local news more by reading a newspaper, but I just get headlines from internet news sites anymore.

Used to have several subscriptions. Now only get the town paper every Thursday by mail. Walk to the local paper store every Sunday for the statewide paper with county news as well. Everything else I want is on the internet. Plus, there are papers and magazines, I would never buy, and the library doesn't even carry.

I was avidly reading the Wall Street Journal and a local paper, but I moved recently.  Currently only reading a few online news sites.

I usually pick up the paper to find out the weather and look for coupons.

I read the local paper online or look at it every morning only allowed to read ten articles a month before you have to pay so I listen to the local talk radio in the mornings usually gives me more news then the paper ever will

I read the paper everyday for my 30 minute lunch--my work has it delivered, otherwise i wouldn't read it. I typically read the sports, front page, local stuff, classifieds (looking for good deals on cars!), and on friday i look at all the grocery store inserts to see the deals for the weekend.
