Notice how all the "free" newspapers (ie, newspapers whose costs are 100% supported by ads) are extreme Leftist, while conservative journals like National Review are mostly supported by subscription, and places like FR are 100% financed by readers. When you have a situation like that, widespread throughout the country, it makes sense to assume that it's not coincidence, but a symptom of a systemic problem

Leftists and Conservatives do not behave the same. Leftists LOVE to harass and boycott any company that supports the Right. The Right does not throw rocks thru a company manager's window merely because the company bought add space in a Leftist publication. Therefore, companies that just want to make a peaceful profit shy away from "controversial" (ie Rightwing) publications.

True enough - Although, people who subscribe to conservative magazines, newspapers, and wesites and the like have already for the most part made up their mind on where they stand on given issues.

I'm trying to consider ways to reach new people - people who, possibly, could be persuaded to take a look at what we have to say. I do, however, understand exactly what you are saying :0)
