The Plain Dealer in Cleveland announced Thursday that it is cutting back home delivery of the newspaper to three days a week.

The Plain Dealer, Ohio's largest daily, will be delivered on Sunday and two other still unspecified days of the week beginning in late summer, publisher Terry Egger said in a news release.

Condolences to the folks in norhteast OH. Speaking as a consumer of The Birmingham New, it has truly gone down the toilet in terms of local and state coverage of news. That, and the editorial board of the entire Alabama Media Group is extremely left-wing. They are attempting to drive folks to their web-site, which at some point, will become a subscription service, I imagine.

Which basically means you’ll be getting your two day old news three days late.

I grew up reading the PD as a kid in Cleveland.
Like most of the things in my old hometown, it’s fading away.

My home town is about 30,000 people. They have one news paper and it just announced 3 day a week publication. The web page is all subscription and updated daily.

So I tell my 89 year old dad this and he says “what’s a web page?”.

These are changing times, indeed.

And as a former subscriber to the Mobile Press-Register I have to agree.....went from 7 days a week to Sun-Wed-Fri and I can’t believe the hard left slant that it has taken.....now the AL.COM has become the daily for B’ham, Huntsville, Mobile and NOLA.....pretty pathetic....I predict that by the end of the year there will be NO newspaper here in any of the three Bama cities or NOLA - people just aren’t interested in reading something that’s been on line for a couple of days and who the hell wants to read their horoscope three days AFTER the fact (LOL).....

I lived downwind of the Std Oil refinery and US Steel, and swam in Lake Erie every summer.

How did I ever make it to 65 yrs old?

Good. That means there are now four days a week when people in Cleveland aren’t being lied to by their newspaper.
