This image shows newspaper circulation in the USA as a percentage of households from 1960 to 2017. On the left side, there is a vertical scale going from 0 to 120 percent. Apart from that, there is also a red line for weekday circulation and a blue line for Sunday circulation. Both lines start high around 100 percent in 1960 and drop below 30 percent by 2017. To sum it up, this image is about how fewer households received newspapers over time. The source is the PEW Research Center Factsheet, June 2018, and the Census Bureau Historical Households Tables.
