Newspaper proprietors do not necessarily have to have a cover price for their publications because advertisement revenue takes care of their operations costs, besides making them a handsome profits. <br /><br />The free-sheets are doing it so why can't they? Evening Standard is a pretty good example. Some would argue that it appears more successful than when it was being sold.<br /><br />It is the greed that is driving their newspapers to the grave. They are now in a bind. Some like Mr Rupert Murdoch are even thinking of charging for online newspapers by paywalling the Timesonline and The Sunday Times.<br /><br />If they still want to sell them make them cheap enough to attract customers who will not think twice before parting with their pennies and appoint unemployed people to become vendors who should be allowed to keep the money for selling.<br /><br />Shiv Satchitshivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13502116207791009000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879006027819443616.post-51547493792902337932010-03-10T10:50:08.847-05:002010-03-10T10:50:08.847-05:00Amen!Amen!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
