The death of local newspapers is going to have horrible consequences. Subscribe to local papers. TV and social media can't do what it does.https://twitter.com/crainsdetroit/status/809863228226412545 …

Tried that but both the Madison and Milwaukee papers were so bad we couldn't stomach them. Back to NYTimes.

I hear you, but such a gap with local news. Even bad is better than none—big question is how to improve them all?

Definitely chicken and egg problem - more subscribers would probably lead to better coverage but yikes. Was biased and no analysis.

N Carolina has remaining decent newspapers. I feel like we should subscribe and engage them maybe? A lot of hard work needed.

Seems the whole field of journalism needs a complete overhaul to meet the needs of modern America. Not sure how that plays out.
