Next year will arrive with one less major metropolitan daily: The 127 year-old Cincinnati Post, an afternoon paper published under a joint operating agreement with the Cincinnati Enquirer since 1977, will issue its last edition on New Year's Eve.
The Enquirer salutes the Post right here.
When I was a boy in the early 1970s, most big cities had at least one afternoon daily--Chicago had two, the Today and the Daily News. Neither survived the decade.
Evening news broadcasts on television, and a shift from a blue collar work force, killed afternoon newspapers.
