The Washington Post Company (WPO) recently followed Scripps' (SSP) lead to beat a path out of the newsprint industry. 9/2007 Z-scores indicate that both companies enjoy 2-4 times the financial strength of most competitors.

	NYT	WPO	NWS	MNI	GCI	SSP	LEE	JRE
Z Score 9/2007	1.835	4.118	2.139	0.812	2.755	4.137	1.282	0.752

Deutsche Bank noted that about 80 percent of The Post Co.'s profit-creating businesses -- almost everything but the newspaper -- have not been affected by the economic slowdown.

Cyclical..riiiiight...these same folks use a small snapshot in time to diagnose Global Warming as man made when it IS proven to be cyclical but the man made downturn of the newspaper is real...heck even Igor(?) in Ghost Busters said print is dead 20 years ago.....

Durr. Stagecoaches have been in a heckuva down cycle. Invest now because the upside is massive.
