Hamburger Morgenpost ceases daily print edition

Hamburg loses a true Hamburg icon: From Friday, the daily 'Mopo' is history. After 75 years, in its anniversary year, the print edition of the Hamburger Morgenpost is facing closure. The Mopo will only be printed once a week, every Friday. The traditional newspaper aims to become the first regional weekly newspaper. Economic challenges in the print sector, declining circulation, and layoffs have led the authorities to take this step. Now, the editorial team and publisher hope that readers will follow the new path of the Mopo.
