Hoy newspaper in Chicago, and its weekly publication Fin de Semana continue to reach an increasing number of Hispanics in the Chicagoland area, according to recently released CAC circulation results for the six-month reporting period ended March 29, 2009. Hoy Chicago is reporting a 28 percent combined increase in the total average circulation of Hoy: Monday through Thursday increased to 63,600 copies per day, 102,200 copies on Friday and 305,400 on Hoy Fin de Semana (weekend edition); this accounts for an unprecedented circulation growth of 51 percent over the September 2007 CAC audit results.
