Some stunning and even shocking circulation figures have been released by the Minnesota Newspaper Association for newspapers across the state.
For example, the West Central Tribune in Willmar has dipped below 10,000 for circulation. They're now at 9,132 - a decline of almost 10 percent.
The Osakis Review dropped 14.8 percent in just the past year! They're now below 640 for circulation. As recently as five years ago, the Osakis newspaper had a circulation of 1,328.
More to follow in next week's (January 10) issue of the Bonanza Valley Voice. (For the record, our current circulation is about 1,580).
