Sporting News, the 126-year-old sports news
publication, is officially going digital. Beginning in 2013,
the title’s presence will be limited to its website, app, and six
newsstand-only season preview issues.
Sporting News has struggled in recent years,
slashing its frequency from weekly to biweekly in 2008, and then to monthly in
2011. Between January and September 2012, ad pages fell a staggering 78.4
percent year over year, according to Publishers Information Bureau.
