The AJC used to deliver daily the afternoon addition in Augusta, Ga but that came to end in the back in the mid 90's. In the first part of this century, you could get the paper down at the beach (Destin, Fl) in the hotels daily. Then it was limited to weekends, then that stopped about two or three years ago. Up until ~2007, don't know for sure when, there were machines here in Dothan, Al. Now they are all gone, if you want to read the AJC, online is the only option unless you want to drive close to Atlanta. I wonder how far they now deliver the paper locally and how far they still keep their machines.
And yes the local paper (Media General's Dothan Eagle here is getting thinner. Most days are only 2 sections with 8 pages in each. Takes less than 5 minutes to scan through. The Sunday paper is worth the coupons, not the articles. Lowes had a $10 off and a $25 off good for about a month.
