    My first job was with a decent regional newspaper company here in the UK.

    What I found interesting was their economics - in those pre-huge-internet days the newspaper itself (with a solid array of journalists, not merely some local newsdesk regurgiator) was paid for by the cost of the advertising it contained.

    The cover price was largely a status thing, that money going to retail and delivery.
