Leo most of the local TV stations have quite a bit of local news on their sites, I think the papers were late in coming around to the online age so they can't generate the advertising dollars to make it profitable.
If ya can't be fast it's good to be Lucky!

Our local paper is fading fast, they POed me so bad years ago that I quit them, they lost a lot of customers when they started printing anti-gun stuff, then add current situations and well, lets just say last I knew you could buy a share of their stock for about 60 cents.

Funny thing they waste their money every Wend. by littering my front yard with a free copy, I have to go pick the dang thing up out of my yard and toss it.  Checked, can't get them ticketed for littering.   ::)

Heck, my phone carries the local news via the local TV station and I can get a weather radar too.

used to get the Muskogee daily paper every morning of the world, when we moved over here, I got it in the mail for about a year after to just keep up what was going on,  checked a year or so back how much an online subscription,  $117  per year,  :o :o  don't need it that bad.  ;D

That's kinda what I thought, they said well it is 365 days a year,  I didin't need to know what was going on that bad,  I just wait till my cousin comes to visit and he tells me if anything important happened.  ;D

I get my new from my school's paper, along with a cool program that lets us get the USATODAY and other newspapers for free... but yeah, all the com classes based on journalism are all going towards magazines, journals, and video... online or via TV... very few things going in print now according to a friend in the photo-journalism stuff.
