I came across an interesting post by David Reich in his blog my 2 cents. In, So young people DO read the paper, Reich mentions the supposed decline in newspaper circulation among the 20- something age group. Recently, in large cities such as New York, Boston and Chicago, free morning tabloids have been establishing a readership, many of whom are young.
Like a lot of people I get the majority of my news information from the internet. Mostly because it is quicker, more convenient and I can sift through a lot of information quickly. While I do appreciate being able to access all kinds of news via the internet, I have always liked the idea of sitting at my kitchen table in the morning sipping a cup of coffee and reading the newspaper (even if it is a tabloid).
I am not-so-secretly hoping this trend makes it to the west coast so I can one day be sitting at my kitchen table, sipping on a cup of coffee reading the morning paper. Anyone want to join me?
