The New York Observer, a newspaper closely tied to Jared Kushner, has made the surprising decision to abandon its print edition. This move marks a significant shift in the way the newspaper operates, and it's likely a response to the changing media landscape.
The New York Observer was founded in 1987 and has been a prominent voice in New York City politics and culture for over three decades. Jared Kushner's family acquired the newspaper in 2007, and he played a key role in shaping its editorial direction.
The decision to go digital-only is a bold move, and it will likely have a significant impact on the newspaper's reach and influence.

New York Observer Ends Print Edition
The New York Observer, a weekly print edition owned by Jared Kushner, has folded.
Kushner's ownership of the paper is a notable fact, given his connection to Donald Trump, his father-in-law.
The paper's decision to cease print publication has no relation to Trump's presidential win on November 8, 2016.
A second publication, the Commercial Observer, which focuses on commercial real estate and is profitable, is unaffected by this move.
The New York Observer's print edition will officially cease on November 9, 2016, with its content continuing to be available online.
Jared Kushner ran the paper through four editors before hiring his friend Ken Kurson to take the reins.
Kurson's leadership led to a size reduction from broadsheet to tabloid.
