Circulation drops at U.S. newspapers as readers turn to online news sources
- Text size
Martin Zimmerman
The Los Angeles Times
October 26, 2009
- A d v e r t i s e m e n t
The Audit Bureau of Circulations reported today that the average weekday circulation of the nearly 400 daily papers that reported sales slid 10.6% between April and September compared to the same six-month period in 2008. That was bigger than the 7.1% decline recorded during the previous six months.
Of the nation’s five biggest daily papers, four reported circulation declines. The Wall Street Journal displaced USA Today as the nation’s largest daily, notching a slim 0.6% gain in subscribers to reach slightly more than 2 million. USA Today’s circulation fell 17% to 1.9 million as the Gannett Co. paper, which gets many of its sales at hotels and airports, was hit by the slump in travel.

Newspapers will make a comeback when we need insulation for our tent city shacks.
Michael Reply:
October 27th, 2009 at 12:27 pm
Ironically, those same papers insulating the shacks will headline “HOUSING BOOM!” and “ECONOMY RECOVERS”.
Perhaps the new shack towns will be called “Obamavilles” (the 20th Century Hooverville in the shade of the Empire State Building), as history repeats itself for Arnold for President and the Global New Deal with SDRs (FDR) and General BetrayUS flaunting it in our face.
Keep the faith, and Occupy until He comes. Wake up Church, repent, and do right.

I associate these tent cities that are going to rise all over this country, as In the classic movie ” It’s a Wonderful Life ” as ” Potter’s Field “, named after Mr. Potter (Lionel Barrymore), the heartless slumlord .

Now that was funny,thanks.
That is the beauty of media that transits from just being biased to out and out propaganda. Biased =news with spin.
Propaganda = outright lies and failure to report relevant news.
Any millionaires out there who want to quickly become billionaires, start a mainstream media TV news service that sticks to reporting and integrity.
sorry FOX, I’m not buying into the “infobabes” propaganda. This battle with the White house is SO fake.

In many ways the loss of local news in these newspapers is tragic. As a Journalist, I will be the first to admit and attack the New World Order’s control over the news media. I left working in it myself for this reason. BUT—a lot of powerful news coverage that actually exposes the inner workings of elitist agendas slips though the holes in the dam through local news coverage.
We desperately need good local reporters on the job, and the newspapers perform this the best, far better then the mindless TV local coverage. In many ways the loss of local newspapers will be very bad for all of us.

I agree and would say that already we have suffered. Here in Knoxville, the Newspaper is just a shill for the corrupt courts and local politicos. I wouldn’t put it in the bottom of a bird cage if I liked the bird at all.
We have no integrity in government anymore at any level. This society is getting ready to be a bloodbath.
Government has completely lost touch with the common man who strives to feed his kids. This place is going to make the French Revolution look like a picnic.
What is funny is the enforcers don’t see it coming. Just the corrupt leaders.

turned into PROPAGANDA RAGS
we slowly CANCELLED our subcriptions.

Skid Marx,
I heard that. I have done the exact same thing you did. Virtually all printed daily news papers have converted to politically correct, self censorship journalism. This holds particularly true when it comes to certain “hot button issues” like illegal immigration. PC correctness has turned newspaper reporting into tacit advocates and enablers of illegal immigration. This has led to a decline of American journalism to the levels of mediocrity never before seen in this country’s history.
TheBMT Reply:
October 26th, 2009 at 9:37 pm
Maybe somebody with a journalistic desire should start a “freedom” paper. Instead of being politically correct, be Constitutionally correct. Id like to, but dont have the time right now. Even if its a local weekly paper, thats better then nothing.

Ephesians 5: (NASB)
11Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them;
12for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.
13But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.
14For this reason it says,
“Awake, sleeper,
And arise from the dead,
And Christ will shine on you.”
15Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,
16making the most of your time, because the days are evil.

I used to love reading the papers, especially the weekend issues, with great colour comics and magazines and crosswords and all that stuff. Now the cartoons are totally lame, the articles insipid, and the crosswords are for dummies. When they stopped printing in depth,exposes and just toed the line of the owners, I stopped buying. Why? I want my brain to be challenged, I want truth and I want shit exposed. That’s why I go to the Internet. I don’t have to believe, or agree all the time, but I can comment right away, so it’s a lot more interactive. Fuck off,Murdoch! (Sound of a teensy-weensy violin playing).

Hey guys, i’m really not trying to sound paranoid here but I figured with obama declaring a national emergency it might be wise to check and see if he issued any executive orders to go along with it.I figured I might get a little bit of a heads up as to exactly what his plans are. On whitehouse.gov when you search for obamas executive orders it comes up 404 page not found.Can you guys check that out and see if you get the same result? I find it more than a little creepy that at this pertinent time we cant see his executive orders

By the way, Mayor Bloomberg, a media magnate and billioinairre, again declared that New York needs illegal aliens. It’s those golf courses that he often talked about. As the Mayor, not a stupid man, obviously himself has said, “Who will take care of them, if the illegal aliens foreign natiionals don’t. Well, he has a point, Another patriot, afterall, Senator , JOHN, “AMERICANS WOULDN’T PICK LETTUCE FOR FIFTY DOLLARS AND HOUR”, McCAIN, has the same concerns about AMericans.

For elites like him, this compliant work force is perfect..it creates the relationship of Patron and PEON for which they envy their counterparts in Mexico and other Third World Hell-Holes. No significant Middle Class in those countries..just the rich and the dirt poor. Nothing much has changed since Mexicans worked on the Hosienda’s [spelling?] decades ago…except now they’re dressed up as resort hotels and manufacturing plants for US companies eager to dump their American, middle-class labor supply.

Another problem is that you have to recyle all that newspaper, and who wants to be hauling it all over the countryside? Same goes for magazines.

I like reading newspapers (mainly for the comics, business news and sports — NOT the “news”) even though I’m computer-savvy. But seeing the price of a newspaper double in two years (50 cents to $1.00) is ridiculous. My pay is not going up, it is declining.

Big city newspapers dying? Good riddance to bad rubbish! These rags long ago stopped practicing responsible journalism; ie. reporting FACTS in an unbiased manner, citing credible sources, and seeking out opposing viewpoints. They’ve turned into soap boxes for left-wing agendas: special rights for special people! The LA Times, in particular, is guilty of advocating for ILLEGAL ALIENS..that is, people who have JUMPED the BORDER, and are living and working here in violation of numerous state and federal laws, including those prohibiting holding a job, stealing identities, and driving without registrations, licenses, and insurance. Organs of the Cheap Labor Lobby, notably the US Chamber of Commerce and spokespersons for fast food restaurants, construction and landscaping contractors, and other exploiters of unskilled labor get a free pass from the LAT. US citizens competing for entry-level jobs, including minorities, can go Pound Sand. They don’t count for squat…the LA Times is in the pocket of ILLEGAL ALIENS.

Just remember if they axe the internet you still have your Bibles, which contain the WHOLE truth about all the wickedness being perpetrated on us by these evil NWO Satanists. The Old Testament Prophets are FULL of verses that describe exactly what is happening to us TODAY. As far as the newspapers losing subscribers, I’m surprised that it didn’t occur sooner. They are just bosom buddies with the TV news channels. They all report the same duplicitous pablum called “new” that is really trivia mixed with hyper-militaristic pro-war rhetoric, pig flue vaccine propaganda, and lots of Hollywood trivia. And the thing I hate most it they talk to us like we are 5th graders. I can barely watch the televised news for 5 seconds without changing the channel or leaving the room in utter disgust at the condescending way they deliver their disinfo. I hope Jesus comes back soon and puts a stop to all this mess.

There are a lot of ex-miltary members working for newspapers. It’s almost a breeding ground of military indoctrination. There is no room for free, creative thinking. They control information and anyone who goes against them does not last long. I recently was working for a newspaper and it was one of the worst experiences of my life. Those who went along got promotions irregardless of how inept they were, as long as they didn’t question authority and didn’t think for themselves.
AP articles are a joke. Terrible spelling, bad grammar and even worse editing. These articles go nationwide and these mistakes happen on a large scale and daily basis. The local newspapers could fix the problems in the editing room, but they just run the articles.
The content is the worst part. Rarely do I read an article that I agree with and it’s usually after I have already read that news days to weeks earlier on the Internet from alternative sites. I have four purposes for my newspaper. Checking the arrest section so I know who to stay away from, the classified section for goods and services, dropping a duece and comic relief in the form of almost not being able to believe how rediculously bad newspapers have gotten.

I have an urgent message for you, more important than any message you can hear. God is Holy and cannot accept sin(honor thy mother and father…, thou shall not kill, thou shall not commit adultery, thou shall not steal, thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor, thou shall not covet..etc…Exodus 20:12-17). Here are some verses that show examples of sin:
“Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.” Matthew 5:21-22
“Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” Matthew 5:27-28
“It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement: But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.” Matthew 5:31-32
“For ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23. Your good deeds cannot cover up your bad deeds.
“But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.” Isaiah 64:6
“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” Romans 3:10-12
You could be perfect in all the law and stumble at one point and it is as if you broke all of them:
“For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.” James 2:10
“Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.” James 4:17
God wrote the law on each man’s heart so they are without excuse on judgment day when we will ALL stand before Christ(”Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another” Romans 2:15). The penalty of sin is death and eternal punishment in the LAKE OF FIRE. I am warning you about hell because I love you! You are dead in your sins and headed for hell which is described in the Word as a FIRE THAT QUENCHES NOT(”…the fire is not quenched” Mark 9:44). It is a horrible and terrible place of everlasting torment that people will go because of their sins.
“And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.” Luke 16:22-24
“In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;” 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9
But God has provided a way for each to escape the lake of fire. He sent his Son Jesus(God manifest in the flesh-1 Timothy 3:16) who was conceived by a virgin by the Holy Spirit of God,lived a sinless life, and suffered a horrible death/shed blood and rose again 3 days later to take the penalty of YOUR sins so you dont have to pay for them in hell for eternity! He loved you so much which is why he did it! He is the only one to have fufilled the law perfectly(sinless) and paid the price of the entire world’s sins so that man could be saved on the merits of His perfection(see Romans 5:19). All you must do to be saved is BELIEVE in Him(trust in Him to save you as a sinner). You must admit your lost sinful condition to Him/that you’re worthy of hell, and ask Him to save you by placing complete trust in Jesus ALONE for salvation(an example in the Word of someone doing this- “And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.” Luke 18:13).It is not even partly by yourselves that you can be saved, but only by the merits of Jesus Christ!
“For God so loved the world, He sent his only Begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life” John 3:16.
“And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world” 1 John 2:2
“…Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,” Revelation 1:5
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” 1 Corinthians 15:3-4
“Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” Acts 16:29-31
“But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.” Romans 4:5
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-10
No works or anything you do can save you! May God open your eyes, that one day I may see you in heaven. Read the Word of God(the 1611 King James version- NOT the modern versions, they are corrupt) before rejecting it! Death is fleeting. You may NOT have tomorrow! For death comes when we least expect it! Make sure you are saved TODAY! The Bible condemns the rich, the wealthy, and those who take advantage of the poor, so it CANNOT have been made up by the elite. Because the Word clearly CONDEMNS people such as those! It declares all mankind as sinners(myself included).
I am a Christian, and love you enough to warn you of the dangers of hell. Beware, the Roman catholic church is NOT Christian! The church CANNOT save you but only Christ! Just because someone says they are a Christian does not necessarily mean they are one(remember the crusades in history? Many were murdered in the name of Christianity. These were no Christians at all by their testimony). Please email me to inquire more. I would be glad to help you out in your search for truth!(my email- livingwaters705@hotmail.com)…To those who slander/mock me, I pray for you and love you anyways and hope you will trust Christ before its too late!
I call upon my fellow Christians on here to return hate posts with love and blessings. The Lord commands us to love them:
“Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” Matthew 5:43-45
Salvation is not found in good works, rituals, church, the pope, water baptism, good lives, etc….But ONLY found by faith in Jesus Christ the Savior!
If you need prayer or anything, just let me know! I would be glad to help! I love and care for you, and I have prayed that every person that reads this who do not know the Lord, would one day turn to Christ in faith for salvation for their sins. I beg you to turn to Christ in faith before it is too late! You get ONE chance while living and then it is too late forever:
“And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” Hebrews 9:27
“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6
“…there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.” Isaiah 45:21-22
“And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17….

Over many years we have all been lied to by our Governments, but not just our Governments but many religous leaders. Many things we have been taught are not even in Scripture and millions have swallowed so many lies by these false prophets. If you are a truth seeker please visit the following web site and take the time to read some of the articles, you will be shocked.
