USA Today reported slight gains -- """

They're selling them at the McDonalds near my house, and sometimes I'll buy one.

Good - let these liberal rags sink.

Could be that people are less inclined to read than they once were. I wonder if literacy is declining or whether we are just happier with electronic media these days. Maybe a combination of the two things. I'm fairly sure that standards have been lowered at schools, but I also imagine that the studen population has increased.

Daily circulation at The New York Times was up 0.5% to 1,142,464.

This saddens me to see more victims added to the liberal roster.

Yesterday, the Boston Globe, that staunch guardian of the news and all things liberal, ran on Page 1 its in-depth analysis of why Patrick Kennedy should not be held responsible for his career of drug abuse, violence, and incompetence. The Globe carefully explained how Ambien makes its user not responsible for his behavior, and how a Kennedy can never be held responsible for his behavior because one of them was once president. The Globe set the world standard in hypocricy in 1969 when, the week Ted Kennedy killed Mary Jo Kopechni, the Globe ran on the front page of that week's Sunday edition, a big picture of Ted giving roses to his mother on the porch of one of the family mansions.

Watching the Boston Globe tank is one of my greater pleasures.

I find this hard to believe. They can't even tell the truth in their pages much less factcheck, so there's no reason I believe their surely phony and inflated ciruclation figures.

Looks like Drudge's source. MSMWOES added.

USA Today reported slight gains

Probably due to the free copies they give out at every hotel in the country.

I'd drop the Houston Comical in a minute if we didn't want to read the Death Notices.

[HitmanLV]

Maybe they should publish every other day to cut costs.

Or just once a week.

I would guess circulation is down because more and more people are discovering Charmin provides superior cleansing, is more puncture resistant and does not leave ink residue.

> The Washington Times celebrated its 23rd anniversary yesterday with cake and champagne served to its employees at a midafternoon assembly, as its executives announced a substantial gain in audited circulation in the face of a national trend of declining U.S. newspaper numbers.

For the six-month period ending March 31, the newspaper's daily circulation from Monday through Friday climbed to 103,017 -- an increase of nearly 3 percent over the similar period last year, according to Fas-Fax, the Audit Bureau of Circulations (ABC) report of publishers' estimates. <

That's from last year's report. Wonder how they did this year.
