Interesting to see what's being done re: newspapers elsewhere.

What I wish my Jordan neighborhood of Minneapolis would do is produce a weekly tiny "index card" of news among our few blocks of town. Either mail or (to save money but use time) walk to every house and drop off the news each week. Hyper-local news. If I get a job to let me stay here, maybe I'll get more involved again and try to take on that project myself.

Regardless, I do pay to get a local physical paper delivered from 2 community newspapers. Currently lapsed, because no job. :(
