The Onion halts all print editions

Posted online

Satirical news organization The Onion is halting its print editions in its remaining markets of Chicago, Milwaukee and Providence, R.I., according to the Chicago Tribune. Due to dwindling advertising, the paper has been disappearing from newsstands in recent years.

The company plans to focus on its web and video content, including a television series for Amazon.com Inc. called the Onion News Empire. The Onion is also rolling out a new creative service for advertisers such as shoe retailer DSW Inc.
