Daily Post and North Wales Weekly News

[Michael]

   P.S.I might add that very few buy one paper, most buy two or three. Don't ask me why (apart from the price) but seeing as they all have the same news I presume they are just given away, Maybe thats the answer, our papers cannot make any money because they have just priced themselves out

The broadsheets to seem to be having a tougher time of it, so reducing size to tabloid might be one solution. But Dave's proposal might work.  I suppose the only way is to try it, and there aren't that many alternatives.

I noticed on Twitter that a local newsagent sold out of the NWWN last week, for the first time in a while. I couldn't help but wonder if the increase in sales has anything to do with the NWWN website disappearing, as it's been my long held theory that giving news away free on their website is killing print sales. Maybe someone has seen sense at last?

Or because there were lots of visitors for the Extravaganza?

Possibly, but would they be interested in local news?

Did he sell put again yesterday?

That will be the test.

When I used to visit I always bought a copy to see what was happening, now I live here we receive the Pioneer for free and the most interesting news appears on here! If the NWWN was a sensible price I would buy it, often wondered why the Pioneer is free and the NWWN is not at a good price (50p?)

Merddin?  What do you mean the most interesting news is on here??

Why, only last week the NWWN ran a big article on some kids who had a made a large montage out of lentils and macaroni at school!   
Plus the court report about a bloke who grew a cannabis plant in Abergele was 'edge of my seat' stuff.   

[Yorkie]

And the NWWN  had not a word about Buff Orpington!   

[Merddin Emrys]

My point is proved!   

[Bri Roberts]

I have simply corrected my careless spelling mistake above.

I must learn to checkbefore posting.

[Tosh]

Buff who???
My, how quickly we forget.   

[1_rob_1]

They must have "chickened" out of mentioning him.

When I’ve had cause to be interviewed by the NWWN on a variety of subjects over the years, I was invariably miss quoted and miss represented, so much so that I stopped buying and reading it altogether. North Wales has been a much happier place for me as a result.
