Western New York Catholic goes All-Digital

Starting September 2020, the Western New York Catholic will cease being printed in its current paper form. The stories and images of life in the eight-county Diocese of Buffalo will still be told but they will reside on the newspaper’s website, wnycatholic.org, and can be accessed by computers, phones, and tablets. With people choosing to get their news online and the decline in print advertising, the move to cancel the publication will save the diocese around $130,000 a year in printing costs. Over the summer the staff of the Office of Communications will be developing a refreshing new look for the Western New York Catholic and will produce a publication biweekly that can be downloaded and printed.
