There's very little you get form the daily paper you couldn't get from thousands of other sources -- national and international news, sports, weather, buying and selling, jobs. And as for local news, who really cares if Piddlepool Elementary School has approved funding to resurface the teacher's parking lot? They can get that information out to the people who need to know via an internet bulletin board, and nobody else on the planet is going to care.
The one useful niche that the regional daily papers could be fulfilling would be to do in-depth investigative reporting on matters of local concern, but too many of them are cutting back on their news reporting staffs as a cost-cutting measure.
So are the regional daily papers doomed?
