National Post Eliminates Mondays
Effective July 3rd, the National Post has given up the ghost on Mondays and will no longer publish an actual paper on that day. The place has been in big trouble for a while, but this is the first time one of Toronto's daily newspapers - a business already reeling from the Internet - won't officially be a "daily" anymore.
The question remains how long before there wont be a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday edition either.
How far the print medium has fallen.

Sorry, that's not true... The Post hasn't published on Mondays for several summers now.

Re: National Post Eliminates Mondays
If that's the case, why do they say on their website, "There will be no print product on July 3, since the Post is eliminating the Monday paper, effective that date."
Is this a reprint? The article is dated June 28, 2017, just a few days ago.
Either way, it's still a sad comment on the newspaper industry.

"For the past eight years, the paper had been switching to a Tuesday-to-Saturday print schedule every summer but this is the first time that schedule has been extended."
"The newspaper hasn’t published on Mondays during the summer months for eight years, but this year won't resume Monday newspapers when the summer ends."
"Effective Monday, July 4, the National Post will reintroduce a Tuesday-through-Saturday summer schedule. This means we will not be printing and distributing a Monday newspaper during the summer through to and including the Labour Day weekend."

Re: National Post Eliminates Mondays
The difference is, instead of only a summer cut off, there will never ever be a Monday paper ever again.

With any luck they will cease all other days as soon as possible.

Re: National Post Eliminates Mondays
I always used to say if the newspapers of this city ever went out on strike, there'd be nothing for talk radio to use as subject matter. It's amazing how they depend on print for fodder.

Now that Stafford does mornings, who needs a newspaper, other than the National Enquirer of course
