Catholic Newspaper Will Cease Publication
Posted: 3/21/2013 | By: seattlepi.com
The Catholic Northwest Progress, a newspaper published for more than a
century by the Seattle archdiocese, will cease publication on June 27
and be replaced by a ten-times-a-year magazine from Michigan that will
focus on evangelization, the Archdiocese of Seattle quietly announced.
“Subscriptions for The Progress have declined steadily over the past
four decades: Fewer than 8 percent of registered Catholic households
currently receive the newspaper, which has been the official publication
of the archdiocese for over 100 years,” the Progress reported earlier
this week.
