This is hopefully a trend that will continue now that most publications have decided that it's too risky to continue inflating circulation figures. The sooner the dinosaur liberal news media dies off, the better the prospects for decent America to repel Democrat attempts to turn the nation into a Euro-style, secular-socialist welfare state and make it as great as.... France.

Enron's figures were probably more correct than the circulation figures that the major fishwraps use to price their ad rates.

Each day on Free Republic we read of new deals from the fish wraps like today, free saturday fishwrap if the customer pays for the Sunday paper with a Philly fishwrap.

The corporate culture of these Fishwraps is one of lying to their readers/subscribers and the pushing of anti business bs like enviralism. Up to the past year or so, I doubt if too many CEOs and CFOs lost any sleep cooking their ciculation numbers.

Lately, a few companies have ended up in court over these inflated ciculation numbers. That probably means that the others have developed more Enron/Arthur Andersen tricks to fool their advertisers and stock owners.
