Newspapers Lose
More Print Ads,
But Gain Online

NEW YORK — Advertising revenue at U.S. newspapers fell 8.6% in the second quarter, as an accelerating decline in print ads more than outweighed gains in online advertising, an industry group reported.

Print-only advertising at newspapers slumped 10.2% to $10.5 billion in the second quarter, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of decline, according to figures compiled by the Newspaper Association of America.

Online advertising at newspapers continued to grow, rising 19.3% to $795.7 million, although that was a slower rate than the 22.3% gain recorded in the first quarter, and the 35% gain in the fourth quarter of last year.
