The first continuously published newspaper in the American colonies, The Boston News-Letter, published its first issue on April 24, 1704. It was the only continuously-produced paper in the colonies for 15 years and ceased publication in 1776 due to the American Revolution.

I know it's hard to pick one, as there is so much doubtful news out.

Yes, it's hard to find unbiased newspapers. I rely on YouTube. 
At least seeing the same faces over and over helps me remember what their views and values are, so I can keep their bias in mind and do more research if I feel like it. They often share the sources where they get the info from, misinformation can still occur but it's limited compared to random Facebook posts.

Thank you for sharing that with us. I only go online these days and go to a place where I like to send the links from called Arutz Sheva. It is Israel National News but has other news as well.

I buy the Sunday paper every week of the only newspaper they have here. It is really thin compared to the fat papers in Colorado.

I haven't read an actual newspaper in years. I usually get my news from the tv.

When I was a kid we subscribed to the local paper, The Daily Local News (delivered daily). My brother was a paperboy way back then. He would meet his wife on his route and kept the job up until a few years ago. He'd get up at 2 AM deliver papers until 6:30 AM then go to his 40+ hour a week job.
For a while here I subscribed to the Taylorsville's Times (delivered once a week), but when it was time to renew the price more than doubled. That was a least 10-15 years ago. I would hate to know what they charge nowadays for it.
