Keltner goes on to explain that the weekly newspaper usually contains news about what matters to readers locally. "They can read about what is happening in their own back yard that will more directly affect themselves and their families."
It is understood that antidotal items such as these do not signify any national trend. But, from the growth reports across the country to the increased circulation figures it appears the small town publications are alive and well. Since they still print death notices, perhaps they will have room to list the big dailies that seem to be dropping like flies.
