Yeah, there has been chatter on the communist channels about a bailout, making “some” newspapers 501(c)(3) nonprofits, a government takeover, and the like.
When I travel I see piles of the NYT, Boston Glob, LA Times, and USA Today in the lobby. Some hotels force a USA Today on you unless you ask that they keep it to make paper maiche heads for the next moonbat parade.
These all count toward circulation!
USA Ptooey doesn’t even permit FR to excerpt. They are afraid of having their spin exposed.
Other than formal 501(c)(3) classification, it seems like this has already happened. They been unprofitably spouting the big-government official line for years. That's what's brought them to this point. They reap what they sow, and it serves them right.
