Electronic Editions—U.S. Newspapers

Single Copy

Single copy is defined as the purchase of only a single issue of a publication. Therefore, a single-copy electronic edition is a situation where a consumer would want to purchase access to only a single current issue to be viewed online—with no further access.

ABC has not been presented with many programs where a newspaper publisher intends to sell and claim electronic editions as single-copy sales. Therefore, if you intend to pursue a single-copy electronic edition program, please contact your Publisher Relations Manager to discuss the program.

For information on how the copies should be disclosed on ABC documents, please refer to the Reporting section on electronic editions.
