Federal Way Mirror to publish once per week on Friday

11.1.11

Bellevue (Wash.) – Effective Friday, January 6th, 2012 the Federal Way Mirror will be changing its’ publishing frequency from twice weekly to once per week on Friday. The last Saturday edition of the Federal Way Mirror will be published on Saturday, December 31st, 2011.

While many newspapers are concerned about declining readership due to the internet age, The Federal Way Mirror is taking the opposite approach - purposefully reducing its frequency of distribution in favor of focusing more resources to publishing an online edition with breaking news content and regular community features that readers have become familiar with in their printed editions.

The Federal Way Mirror will stay focused on providing high quality, local editorial content to their readers, and targeted advertising packages to local and national advertisers. “Our goal is to be the preeminent provider of local content and advertising in Federal Way,” says Josh O’Connor, Vice President of East Sound Newspaper Operations, Sound Publishing, Inc.

Based in Washington State, Sound Publishing newspapers, classified publications, and partner newspapers serve western Washington and western Oregon communities. Sound’s broad household distribution blankets the entire Greater Puget Sound region, extending northward from Seattle to Canada, south to Salem, Oregon, and westward to the Pacific Ocean.
