Sitting down on a Sunday morning and relaxing with the paper has been a long standing tradition for many people, but traditions have a habit of dying. The Internet is fast becoming the most popular source for news. Over 50,000 Americans get their news online every day and the numbers continue to rise.

Why wait for the news when you can get immediate access online? As much as I love reading a "real" newspaper, late and missed deliveries took away much of the enjoyment. So like many other people I began looking for local news online.

It has advantages. Many of the sites provide free access to the same news that are in the hard copy available on newsstands or by delivery. Online newspapers also cut down on clutter. There are no newspapers to pile up waiting to be read. The Sunday edition is typically loaded with sale circulars. No need to worry about missing a sale, you can View Weekly Sale Circulars Online.
