October 15, 2012 4:34 AM
HOUSTON (CBS HOUSTON) –
Only 29 percent of Americans now say they read a newspaper yesterday – with just 23 percent reading a print newspaper. Over the past decade, the percentage reading a print newspaper the previous day has fallen by 18 points (from 41 percent to 23 percent). Somewhat more (38 percent) say they regularly read a daily newspaper, although this percentage also has declined, from 54 percent in 2004.
Also according to the recent Pew Research Center poll, Americans enjoy reading as much as ever – 51 percent say they enjoy reading a lot. This is little changed over the past two decades, but a declining proportion gets news or reads other material on paper on a typical day. Many readers are now shifting to digital platforms to read the papers.

Just cancelled The Record because of extremely poor service and no response from management. Now getting the NY Times.
Bergen Record… NY Times…
Same sh*t opinion disguised as “news”, different package…
If it wasn’t for the supermarket circulars The Records circulation would drop by an additional 50%.
that’s because too much bull shit. the ridge wood news prints story’s from the council. they need to print real hard ass story’s of the town like man power in village dept’s , town owned building’s, the village fleet, and so much more.
The Sunday papers are the best. I love to sit back with coffee and the Times and The Record – if the record arrives by 9:00
It’s called the internet…
I love to eat sunday morning and drink a lot booz and take a big dump.
