I've noticed a trend of combining a newsletter with blog posts. In these two examples, each done a little differently, the focus is on driving readers to read what interests them the most. Whether it's a special report, an audio file, or weekly blog posts, the reader decides what topic and how they want to get their information.

Thanks for highlighting my newsletter on this blog post.
I have received a lot of positive feedback since I've changed my newsletter format.
