The Detroit Free Press and Detroit News could drop Monday and Tuesday editions online and in print.
Lots of uncertainty here. But I’m told high muck-a-mucks at Gannett could be mulling whether to chop the Monday and Tuesday online and newsstand editions because of poor advertising revenues on those days.
That would leave online versions of the Freep and News Wednesday
through Sunday, with the paper version of the Free Press delivered
Thursday, Friday and Sunday and the News delivered Thursday and
Friday.
With the way things are going, pretty soon I expect to get the Freep digital edition on Thur, Fri, Sun and only a printed edition on Sunday.
You’d get one big, fat printed edition weekly. The news would be at most a week late but hey, you got your paper so enjoy it because we know what the customer wants!
Huh, You’d think a newspaper might think there could actually be some news made to report on Mondays and Tuesdays.
