Here’s some discouraging data for anyone who appreciates newspapers (as an industry or as an employer): Every newspaper except one of the top 25 has sufferred a decline in circulation. The Chicago Tribune fared better than most, with only a single-digit loss.
Here’s E&P’s story about the phenomenon. It includes numbers on the Baltimore Sun, which didn’t do as well as the Tribune.



Ugly, ugly numbers to be sure. Can anything be done to turn this trend around and if not what will the industry look like 5 years from now?
