Unfortunately the worst offender, the NYT, has an increased circulation according to this list.

Besides the WSJ, could any of these papers be considered "conservative?"

Well, I'm sure people were upset when the pony express was done away with. And I remember when the first microwaves came out.
I haven't touched a newspaper in years. Hate getting the ink on my hands. Just use electronic media. Someday they'll just go the way of the dinosaurs. Matter of time.

A kid came to my door the other day trying to sell me a subscription to Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The conversation:

Me: Sorry, I hate the Journal.

Him: Oh, too liberal?

Me: Yep.

Him: Well, they've added some new conservative columnists lately.

Me: I get my news from the internet.

Him: That's ok, I hate the Journal too. Goodnight, sir.

Bless his heart.

Only because Starbucks is building new shops. How else can they distribute more trash?

I cannot conceive of better news than this. I hope they starve to death, and I hope their KIDS starve to death.

Seems like a few months ago that the way newspapers calculated circulation numbers was under attack from their financial backers. Could this be an adjustment resulting from that criticism or has that adjustment already taken place?

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 362,426, down 8.73 percent

I used to subscribe to this paper years ago. It is so bias and racist that I don't even bother to look at it on the internet for free. Every article written must state the democrat point of view and point out the race angle in the first paragraph or the editors will spike it.

I get calls all the time to subscribe and I always give them a piece of my mind.

"11. The Arizona Republic, 411,043, down 0.54 percent "

19. The Oregonian, Portland, 333,515, down 1.24 percent


And nobody is surprised. If it weren't for their Sunday advertisement edition the number would be 3.

"10. The Boston Globe, 414,225, down 8.25 percent "

Ha ha...the Boston Gay-Lobe, with its relentless pro-homosexual stories, is hemorrhaging readers. If only this rubbed off on its 'sister' publications, the New York Slimes.

But you know what they are saying in their newsrooms..."It's all Bush's faaaaauuullt!"

Does this include the free copies the Boston Globe sends to my town every Sunday?
