It appears more and more old media sources are resorting to exaggerating their circulation in order to prop up revenues. Check out the last paragraph. It’s not just Newsday. It’s also The Dallas Morning News, owned by Belo Corp., and the Chicago Sun-Times, owned by Hollinger International Inc., to name a few. They are on the way out.

"...we need to make significant changes in the business in order to have a healthier newspaper for the future," Knig said."

Well, they say 100 jobs, but you know how newspapers are with their numbers, they always overstate by about 17%. So, the real lay off will be about 83 jobs.

When you allow a 1st ammendement "licensee" to "protect it's sources," this is the kind of fraud you get -IF EVERY ASPECT OF THE FOR-PROFIT BUSINESS!!!
