The Camden Community News, a north Minneapolis neighborhood newspaper that had covered the area since 1976, printed its final issue in late August, ending a 50-year run.
What the Paper Covered
The paper was distributed to local businesses and mailed to about 10,000 households in the Camden neighborhood, covering local zoning boards, school events, and neighborhood merchants.
Part of a Broader Trend
The closure adds to a wave of small, independent newspaper shutdowns nationwide in recent years, as local outlets have struggled against declining ad revenue and competition from national digital media.
