By: E&P Staff Starting Monday, you can no longer buy The Daily Oklahoman everywhere in Oklahoma.
The paper last month began warning readers that it was remaining a statewide paper -- but only in the sense that it covered news of the entire state. On Dec. 1, it told readers at the time, it would no longer distribute to all four corners of the Sooner State.
Oklahoman Publisher David Thompson said the increase in materials cost, particularly newsprint, was behind the decision.
About 7,000 home delivery households were affected by the change. Most were more than 100 miles from the paper?s Oklahoma City home base. In some cities, including Tulsa, home delivery has been suspended, but single-copy sales will continue, Thompson said.
