Shawnee News-Star drops Saturday print edition

Starting August 11, the Shawnee News-Star (Oklahoma) will no longer print a separate Saturday edition, the paper announced in a column from Publisher Kent Bush.
The News-Star will still be printed Tuesday through Friday. The two papers weekend papers will be made into a bigger paper delivered on Saturday morning.
Website coverage will continue seven days a week, the paper says.
The paper cites newsprint tariffs imposed by the Trump administration as a reason for the change.
“The past few years have been very successful for the News-Star and, if our government will avoid creating any more damaging business conditions, our future is bright,” Bush wrote.
