Don’t Tell Greenspan:
ByThis morning inflation hit home when I purchased the New York Sun and learned they raised their price 100%!
Actually it’s not that big of a deal, it was originally only a quarter.

Doh! Really? I buy a Sun every morning, but the bodega where I get it is usually crowded with 2-5 lottery ticket purchasers, so the routine is to just throw a quarter onto the counter. Wonder how long I can play dumb…

My guess would be not to long. I have the same routine but this morning when I threw the quarter on the counter, the guy was on my like white on rice.
Personally I can’t blame them. As a kid I ran a candy store and know that the spread is so small on those papers that if you lose one you have to sell 5 to make it back.

The NY Sun was 50¢ back in 2002 when it first came out. The change is probably due to when it drop out of the the Audit Bureau of Circ.

The Sun needs to change how it gets ad revenue. amNew York has pages of classifieds and the Sun has one or two. this is where the money is.
They should also make their online access free and stop copying the WSJ. A small paper cannot survive when you don’t make it accessible online.
