Most newspapers have a shelf life of a day, though there are weeklies, I'd not even look at the date on our free local weekly.
Magazines are weekly or monthly.
I think it's a category where the date format is irrelevant. It's websites, computer documents, file directory views and food expiry dates where it's important. Food expiry should be ISO due to international trade, but I see many formats in the supermarket.
For years BBC and Movies used Roman year format to obfuscate the copyright year from ordinary viewers.
