    Newnan, Georgia’s paper publishes five days a week, serving a county of probably now more than 100,000 people.

    Riverton, Wyoming’s “Daily” Ranger also publishes five days a week, serving a county of around 40,000.

    I have to admit, the versatility of this schedule is quite impressive.

    The Edmond Sun, located in the next town up (population 95,000 or so), puts out only two print copies a week, bur emails an electronic edition five days (Tuesday through Saturday). Circulation is around 7,000.
