- This financial pressure has forced hundreds of small newspapers to shut down entirely over the past two decades.
- As advertising revenue shrank, many local papers could no longer afford the reporters needed to cover community events in depth.
- The rise of free online news and social media platforms, however, drew both readers and advertisers away from these printed publications.
