While I was gorowing up, my dad worked for a weekly newspaper for a
small town. There was only one other weekly in the county, no daily, and
both had a good circulation. After Dad left the paper, I read the other
one for a number of years.

I've subscribed to a local paper every where we've lived (my husband
spent 26 years in the Army); some were much better than others. During
the 6 years we spent in Germany, we got "Stars and Stripes", Eurpopean
edition. Some of them were quite into local foods, others, not so.

No, they want you to go for the on line edition instead.

A local throw away is tossed onto yards once a week or so for those that
don't get the Raleigh paper (published by them) with grocery ads and
such like. Since we get the Raleigh paper, we don't get that. We don't
subscribe to the Wake Forest paper (a weekly) but usually get a copy at
the farmer's market thru the American Legion stand. After reading, they
both go into the recycle bag.
