The Associated Press has published a list of all daily newspapers that have cut back editions in the past year. Here's a look at Ohio:
- Bellevue Gazette - Dropped Mondays in January.
- Fairborn Daily Herald - Dropped Mondays in November.
- The Galion Inquirer - Dropped Mondays in September.
- Greenville Daily Advocate - Dropped Mondays and Tuesdays in January.
- Times-Gazette, Hillsboro - Dropped Mondays in November.
- The Madison Press, London - Dropped Mondays in November.
- Piqua Daily Call - Dropped Tuesdays in February.
- The Sidney Daily News - Dropped Tuesdays in February.
- Troy Daily News - Dropped Tuesdays in February.
- Van Wert Times-Bulletin - Dropped Mondays last fall.
- Wilmington News Journal - Dropped Mondays in September.
- The Xenia Daily Gazette - Dropped Mondays in November.
You can read the entire list here.
On a personal note, I began my journalism career with the Fairborn Daily Herald and Xenia Daily Gazette back in high school. I interned there for two summers and really learned the basics of the craft during that time. It pains me to see the paper be forced to cut back.
Do you see any hometown papers on the list? Please share with us.
Thanks!

Evan, this might be worth talking about.

My dad lives in Buffalo and sent me this. Apparently, Buffalo's newspaper is doing just fine and dandy.
I wonder if there is something in their business model that is keeping them alive or if it just an outlier or a quirky aspect of Buffalo.
Still, I guess it is nice that out of the hundreds of metropolis' in America, at least ONE is staying afloat.
