Montreal Gazette Ends Print Edition of Sunday Paper

The Montreal Gazette has announced it is ending the Sunday Gazette. The Sunday version of the paper will go web-only. The Gazette will cease publishing a print version of the paper on Sundays as of Aug. 8.
In its 22-year existence, the Sunday Gazette has struggled to find significant advertising support to cover the costs of printing and distribution. Subscription rates and single-copy sales cover only a small percentage of total costs; therefore, The Gazette has decided to focus its resources on the six remaining print editions and on the Web.

La Presse made a similar decision last year and other newspapers, both in Canada and the U.S., have reduced their print editions in recent times.
Newspapers cutting back on Sunday issues has become a major in the industry as the newspaper publishing industry continues its slow migration to become an all-digital industry.
