Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

PITTSBURGH (Newsradio 1020 KDKA) - Another blow is coming to traditional newspapers.

It was announced Thursday that the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is going more digital and will only print three days a week.

 Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh Chairman, Jonathan Silver published a letter they received from the publication in a tweet.

More bad news: ⁦@PittsburghPG⁩ today has notified ⁦@michaelafuoco⁩ and ⁦@PGNewsGuild⁩ that it will cut TWO MORE DAYS OF PRINT on Sept. 30, meaning we will print for home delivery only three days a week. Unclear which days will go in this all-digital strategy. pic.twitter.com/IqrNr3Nxdk

The new printing schedule begins September 30 and print editions are expected to be available on Thursday, Friday and Sunday.

The Post-Gazette stopped publishing on Tuesdays and Saturdays last August.

The newspaper’s website and digital app will continue to operate seven days a week.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is owned by Block Communications.
