I read the local paper for years then gave it up about 15 years ago. Recently started again. It’s pretty useless, but occasionally there’s something I need to know. I read the New York Times and the Washington Post on my kindle every day.
Sunday Review can be the best part, so I usually save that for last. I start off with the Sunday Magazine, then The Review of Books, and then move on to Sunday Review. I’ll skim the other sections, but I really only like the 3 I mentioned.
I do but only while I’m eating at the kitchen table. I think we just get it mostly for the ads.
Always. And I’m crabby as hell if the delivery guy skips my house.
Honestly. How’s a guy supposed to take his morning dump without reading the op-eds and Garfield?
Since the bird died, I have no need for the local paper.
I read the entire NYT on my iPad each day.
I need two things each morning: coffee and a physical newspaper. Fortunately our local newspaper still prints 7 days a week and has home delivery. The subscription price keeps going up though - I think they’re trying to encourage people to switch to the web version.
I’m sure it will become too expensive or unavailable at some point, and I will be very sad when that happens.
My morning routine is to stop at a diner. I skim the paper while waiting for breakfast, read what I can while eating, and I might pick it up during break at work. The local paper is lousy. It usually has just one or two articles of local interest, and it seems nobody at the paper can spell or punctuate. If I read that another crook has been ‘formerly charged,’ I’m going to shoot someone.
Every morning since I was 14. But the price has increased to the point where I’m starting to think about what would happen if I didn’t.
I also read the Merc every day, even though it’s a shell of its former self. But it’s the only way to get any kind of local news coverage.
I read one every day, but I wouldn’t call it everyday.
Dropped the KC Star about 5 years ago. Frankly by the end I only liked it for the crossword puzzles by Will Smith and the comics. The news was always old and the opinions and editorials always had a liberal slant.
I sometimes read a local weekly called The Pitch which is like a Village Voice and the Pitch will still have reporters digging up some real stories.

In the Old Days I got a morning and afternoon delivery of the local papers. I haven’t for years, (and one has gone all on-line anyway). I now get the weekend NYT.
The main problem for me now is the print is too small for my old eyes. On line I can enlarge.
I read news on my tablet, but we have birds. We have a neighbor who saves newspapers for us specifically for the birds.
How does your husband have time to read three newspapers cover to cover every day? I can barely skim through one without it getting in the way of everything else I have to do on a weekday.
I read the local rag while making and eating Breakfast. A physical paper is superior to a digital subscription mostly because my kids can read (and fight over) the comics while I read the front page.
I used to, then I cut down to Sundays and Wednesdays only, and recently I got tired of going out on Sunday to get the paper. I read what I read online now or in an app. Newsprint is too small for me to read comfortably any more anyway. If newspapers want to keep their aging customers reading the print version they need to make the print larger. I love that on my ipad or computer I can crank up the font size to something I can see. I now buy the Wednesday localish paper for the ads and the food section and the Wednesday New York Times for the food section.
I live in Fremont, but I have gotten the Mercury News after the Argus stopped publishing Mondays and told you to look at their website. Plus Mr. Roadshow appears only spottily in it. The Mercury News was much better before it got sold to ANG.
And the NY Times every day. Even the best international news in the Murky News is feeble compared to what is in the Times.
In any case, I hate doing crossword puzzles on line, so I need real paper.
ETA: The Times is expensive, but we recycle it to friends, so three families read each issue.
I live in suburban Chicago, and I’ve subscribed to the Chicago Tribune for 26 years. (Note: yes, this means that I’m old; I’m 50. 
)
I read it almost every day, certainly every weekday – it’s my reading material for the train ride to work, and, if I don’t finish it on the train, I’ll sometimes read it during lunch. I’ll often not read it much on the weekends, if only because I’m busy doing other things.
When I was unemployed for a few months, earlier this year, I wound up not reading it often, as I wasn’t commuting (and reading the paper is part of that commute routine for me).
I don’t understand the big difference between reading a newspaper on paper or on-line every day; before we could get quality news online, I subscribed to and read a physical newspaper every day. Now that I can get quality news online, I subscribe to and read an online newspaper every day.
I can understand (and agree with) saying “Yahoo news isn’t the same as a real newspaper!!!” but if we’re talking NYTimes or Washington Post or whatever online edition versus physical edition, there’s no difference to me.
Personally, I’m more happy with online newspaper versus paper ones, because previously, I was limited to whatever paper ones I could get delivered every day. Now, I can get any newspaper in the world online, every day. That results in me getting much higher quality of news than I was ever able to when my only choices were what happened to be delivered locally.
