I have always been cheap about the newspaper. I don't really know why.
I read the paper when it is available. Now, I read it in the lunchroom since work provides copies.
I hate the dirty fingers it gives me, but I still like the lack of distractions that reading a newspaper has. When I hold it up it blocks my entire field of view from EVERYONE. There isn't any stupid moving advertisements or dancing shadows telling me to refinance my house. It's primarily easily digestible and while articles can split to another page, it is easily found and no more extra advertisements jump onto my screen. Yes, I use an ad blocker but still, sometimes I don't.
