Does anyone know if the Charleston Post and Courier newspaper has any home delivery in Columbia? I know I can pick it up at supermarkets and other locations, but would love to get it delivered. Thanks for your help!
I doubt it - newspapers are going the way of the dinosaurs and they have been shrinking their delivery areas. You could try calling the newspaper, though.
Yes, I plan to call them this week, but I doubt they do deliver in this area. I can get delivery of USA Today and The Wall Street Journal. Wish we could get the Charlotte paper. Although we get most of our news online, we like a real print paper to read with breakfast, which probably makes us dinosaurs, too!

LOL, it's ok to be a dinosaur, but I know newspapers have been reducing their delivery areas to reduce costs. I'm sure the day is not far off that home newspaper delivery will be a thing of the past, kind of like the milkman.
An aside. I moved to Columbia from Charleston. I soon found out the State newspaper is a "toilet rag" compared to the P&C. Such a shame that the capital city has such an inferior newspaper.

The Charlotte Observer is still sold in Greenville and Spartanburg at Publix and QuikTrip stores, and at least 2 local newsstands. But ironically The State paper is no longer delivered to the Upstate. Nor is the Atlanta Journal-Constitution which used to be distributed here.
The State used to be a great newspaper. No doubt it has declined.
Both the State paper and the Charlotte Observer are now owned by McClatchy, and they have both declined a bit and cut back on content since the days of Knight-Ridder. But you can purchase a paid subscription for the exact digital replica of the print edition.
