The Register-Guard has been stripped of a large percentage of what makes a daily newspaper relevant in a community. People are dropping their subscriptions like wild, all disappointed that the quality and substance of the paper continue to decline precipitously.
Losing the editorial page, with its syndicated columns and letters to the editor, was the final nail in the coffin of this now skeleton of a so-called daily newspaper. Increasing the days that there is no paper and the days there is no print edition has added insult to injury for the readers.
We have been one of the last hold-out subscribers, but no more.
Our vibrant city deserves a quality daily. As a quality weekly, your morphing into a daily would be a gift to all folks of the area and, I suspect, a very successful venture for the Eugene Weekly.

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
