Cleveland, OH, February 25, 2022 — US newspaper publishing revenues are forecast to fall less than 1.0% annually in nominal dollars through 2026, according to Newspaper Publishing: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. The widespread availability of free news content will continue to suppress subscription rates, though rising prices and a publisher push for digital subscriptions will offset revenue declines to an extent. As the news media continues to go digital, online revenues are projected to see 5.9% annual growth through 2026, as print revenues continue their decline at 3.8% annually. The increasing use of paywalls on newspaper websites and rising digital subscriptions is encouraging growth in online revenues, while falling circulation is driving losses in print revenue. Growing competition from other providers of advertising space – particularly social media platforms – will constrain revenues from advertising. However, losses will be limited by expansion in nontraditional product offerings, such as marketing services.
