Expands definition of newspaper for required public advertisements to include those published online.

New Jersey A1711 expands the definition of a newspaper for required public advertisements to include those published online. The bill allows newspapers that meet specific qualifications, such as being printed in English, having a general paid circulation, and maintaining an average news content of at least 35%, to be eligible for publishing legal advertisements even if they are published electronically. This change removes the requirement for newspapers to be registered as second-class mail matter with the postal service.
