Local newspaper circulation continues to dwindle these days and rumors of more job cuts at Los Angeles News Group publications has once again surfaced.
The Los Angeles News Group is reporting that its member papers, Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, The Sun, and Redlands Daily Facts, have a combined paid daily circulation of just over the 100,000 threshold.
Here is the numbers from the groups website:
Inland Valley Daily Bulletin 49,899 Paid Daily Subscriptions The Sun 50,941 Paid Daily Subscriptions Redlands Daily Facts 6,972 Paid Daily Subscriptions Total 107,812 Paid Daily Subscriptions
The stop-gap measure of mandatory quarterly furloughs does not appear to have stopped the financial hemorrhaging at the newspapers.
And on another note, A.H. Belo (NYSE: AHC), owner of the Riverside-based Press-Enterprise and Dallas Morning News, is expected to report another lose after the close of trading on Wednesday.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the company lost $6.7 million.
For all of 2010, the company lost $124.3 million.
One need only to look at the shrinking size of each area newspaper where advertising outstrips content.
Yellow paint would have been more appropriate to the yellow journalism that these papers print.
The two papers are absolutely the worst. Pathetic.
if they would report real stories that might be worth reading.there are several law suits going against sbcounty in superior and federal.
I find the Sun good for wrapping fish and lining cat litter boxes.
My darling persian purrsons refuse to piss and/or shit on anything other than the Sun!
Newspapers really need to do two things to survive. They need to embrace the internet and then really need to start reporting the news and not their just biased version of it.
And who said the San Bernardino County Sentinel newspaper isn’t the most successful publication in the IE now? The Daily Bullshit deserves to fold after they foiled Mark G.’s adjudication in court, probably on behalf of the County and public unofficial Nancy Bohl.
money talks the rest is bs.
