I could earn NY Times investors 1000% in the first 6 months if I ran the company.

1. Close down all news operations
2. Close down all outside interests
3. Just sell the crossword puzzle as a daily
4. Create and sell books of just the NY Times crossword
puzzles

I bet circulation would skyrocket because now you have another 65% of the population buying the Times for something that is actually useful,although mindless like the paper is now.

Avoid the movie Wordplay unless you want a nauseating infomercial from the Times. Plus a heavy dose of Bill Clinton, who it turns out is smart enough to do crossword puzzles. Plus two gay guys kissing each other on the lips in a PG-rated film.

Congratulations to the filmmakers: they managed to sneak in more leftist propaganda where it was totally unexpected.

I thought you were going to say that the NY Times should simply dump all its attempts to provide content and convert all its paper output simply to "all toilet paper, all the time"..... but they would still be too expensive and too uncomfortable compared to Charmin, so maybe the Crossword puzzle idea is their best option....

The New York Times should go strictly online. To be fair they have an excellent website.

But why give them any suggestions just let that stinking pile of bricks fall into the Hudson.
