According to the Times article, “news will continue to be delivered online as it is currently being provided with a weekly e-edition and a special weekend e-edition.”
The reason for the change included a reference in the article to “keep moving forward with changes that are a result of the digital age as many readers are continuing to move to that medium but will also give those that love the feel and smell of a newspaper the opportunity to still hold the news in their hands.”
The Wednesday print edition will contain the usual currently published sections and online stories will be posted daily.
The Times has been serving Frankfort and Clinton County since 1877. Newspaper circulation peaked nationwide in the early 1980’s with slightly over 60 million readers nationwide. Current national readership of newspapers total about 20 million readers nationwide.
