Saturday, April 12, 2008  Star Circulation Number Losses Not As
Bad As Other Dailies  Like pretty much all daily newspapers, the
Star has experienced a decline in its circulation in recent
years. Since 2003, its daily circulation is off 1,400 to
250,000, and its Sunday circulation has dropped 28,000 to
340,000 according to a story by the IBJ's Anthony Schoettle. The
good news for the Star is that its losses aren't nearly as bad
as other major daily newspapers. Nonetheless, revenues at
Gannett, the newspaper giant which owns the Star, are down due
to declining ad revenues. The Star is trying to make up the
difference with an expanded online presence, but it's got a long
way to go. This chart from the IBJ shows the drop in daily
circulation numbers for a number of newspapers.   7th CD guy

hatred they spew, can anyone NOT understand why circulation
down? Look at the way The Star worshipped Bart Peterson as the
savior of Indy.  Apples of Gold said...  It
