I can't remember the last time I picked one up, at least a year or two.

I subscribe to the wsj. I think home delivery is the same price as online, so I get a paper every morning too.

I may pick up a freebie USA at a hotel every now and then, but generally, no.

Which btw, that USA paper is pretty skinny now.

I haven’t read an actual newspaper since about 2005

We still get home delivery every day. I don’t usually have time to read it all, but I enjoy it.

My co worker that still uses a flip phone brings a paper to work. He's so weird.


I resemble that remark. But I'm retired, so no heading to work in the a.m.

I do have a flip phone and get the daily paper delivered to the house. My thing is doing the daily crossword puzzles and all the other puzzles the Living section has.

Never have been much on reading the news on-line. Besides, I use the paper in my garden between rows to act as a weed blocker and eventually break down to be tilled back into the soil.

I seldom even see a newspaper that isn't in a trash can. I get my news,if that is what you call it, online.

I got a coworker that dresses like he is an extra in Peaky Blinders and uses a pocket watch. He is in his mid thirties. I try to find things in common with him but I just can't figure him out. He is a nice guy though so wear what you want my dude.

I read the Advocate every morning before leaving the house.

Haven’t read the paper in a few years. It used to be my favorite part of the day before I became aware of the fact that 95% of what they were reporting as news was bullshite.

I do.

I have a daily subscription.

A free press is the cornerstone of democracy--and the press cannot be free unless it's independent.

Someone has to pay for that independence. I'm doing my part.

I buy a paper everyday for my customers to read while they wait. The Advocate has gone to shite.
