KEY POINTS:
The Christian Science Monitor has announced plans to end its daily print edition next year and become the first national United States newspaper to adopt an almost entirely internet-based strategy.
The 100-year-old newspaper, which like other US dailies has been losing readership and advertising revenue to online media for years, said it would drop its daily print edition from April 2009.
It said it will continue to offer subscribers weekly print and daily email editions.
