A New Daily Newspaper in Detroit
(2009-11-13)
ROYAL OAK, MI (Associated Press) - Two veteran publishers are launching a daily newspaper serving the Detroit area, where the two largest newspapers have reduced home delivery to survive in a struggling industry.

Brothers Mark and Gary Stern said Friday they'll start publishing The Detroit Daily Press on Nov. 23, selling it for 50 cents daily and $1 on Sundays. Home delivery starts Nov. 30.

The paper's 60 full-time employees are using the former offices of The Daily Tribune of Royal Oak, which moved.

The Sterns ran daily newspapers in Detroit in 1964 and 1967; New York in 1978; and Minneapolis in 1980 when workers at those cities' major newspapers went on strike.

The Detroit News and Detroit Free Press in March reduced home delivery and increased electronic offerings. © Copyright 2012, Associated Press
