This document proposes a "7-1-7" business model for newspapers to increase accessibility and readership in rural areas. It suggests publishing newspapers 3 times a day - at 7 AM with full news, 1 PM with major headlines, and 7 PM also with major headlines. Readers would get updates throughout the day. Editions could focus on specific regions or topics. Distribution methods include newspaper booths, hawkers, and ATM spaces. The model aims to make newspapers more available and profitable compared to a single daily publication.
