Depends on the paper and the station. 

Newspapers are an endangered species and they are yesterday's news, but they are still hanging in there, especially for old timers.

The Oregonian, which has never been the greatest paper in my opinion, has cut back home delivery to 4 days a week. The online version is available everyday. They actually upped the subscription price when they did this and they shrunk, literally, the paper. All the news, global, national and local is in one section now.

For true local news, there is always West Linn Tidings, which is a small weekly local paper. For a different slant on Portland news, there's Willamette Week. Willamette Week does it's best to help "keep Portland weird."

Oahu only has one daily and it is available online too, but you have to pay for total access.

Same with the Oregonian, if you want total access to the online digital "paper" you have to have a subscription. A lesser version, known as Oregon Live, http://www.oregonlive.com/#/0 is available without a subscription.
