Print media is dying or so they say.
The Independent moving online only is one recent example.
May be more of a generational issue with local papers. I don’t think most people under 30 really care about reporting of minor court cases etc, whereas granny would devour them, same with printed family announcements, births, deaths, marriages – who does that anymore ?
One thing that used to be popular was buying the local paper for the cars, houses on sale, or the football coverage.
All online now.

Another point, making readers click to answer questions like the Daily Post isn’t a long term solution, its very annoying, and quicker to google the headline instead, even my grandad has sussed that out.
How will they make money ? No clue.
