Default Printed Newspapers

Why we still like to get a printed newspaper:

We like to do the puzzles - we do them using an ink pen - and with a beverage nearby to sip on while working them. One can do them "anywhere"

They are more portable than a desk-top computer.

One can cut out articles and send them to friends.

One could color the comics if they are printed in black and white.

Even though the papers have shrunk in size and content, I still like having something to touch.

It's easier for me to read from paper than from a screen.

My son likes (loves) to read the ads and clip coupons. In fact, DH and DS Sunday morning conversations revolve around the ads - and really goes on and on if one of their favorites is not included in that edition! Or the paper is not delivered.

I like the advice columns. My DH likes the opinion section.

If one saves the papers, one can go back and re-read an article at one's leisure and comfort.

Do you still get a printed newspaper?
