Two small daily papers each drop a day of publication
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
A financially strapped newspaper chain is dropping two days of publication for two small dailies in Minnesota and Wisconsin, the newspaper industry journal Editor & Publisher reports. Beginning next week, the Mesabi Daily News in Virginia, Minn., won’t publish on Mondays and the Daily Press in Ashland, Wis., won’t publish on Tuesdays.


Steve Parker is the deputy managing editor for news, and oversees the Post-Dispatch's front page. STLtoday's online news editors are on his newsroom team. Parker has been at the paper since September 1980.
