Wall Street Journal to pass USA Today as top US paper

The Journal, with a total circulation of just over two million, said that would make the News Corp.-owned newspaper the largest in the country by weekday circulation
USA Today would still remain number one in terms of total print circulation because the Journal's total circulation includes nearly 356,000 subscribers to its website, it said.
The US newspaper industry has been reeling from a steep drop in print advertising revenue, steadily declining circulation and the migration of readers to free news online.
The Wall Street Journal is currently the only major US daily to make readers pay for access to all of its content online.
