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.
Circulation probably includes all the free copies given away. It would be interesting to see numbers on paid subscriptions.
The NYT has been doing lots national advertising (I've seen many commercials here in Tucson, AZ). Perhaps that caused the 0.5% increase in circulation. Do the costs in advertising offset the gain in circulation? I doubt it...
I think some of the libs in Boston are buying the Times instead of the Globe. When my very liberal Bostonian brother visits us in New York, he often mentions articles that were in the Times. We no longer read the Times.
Not many, though. That 0.5% increase only amounts to 5,700 copies.
