And how dumb! All these advertisers who have cut back on their newspaper advertising counting on the Tribune to come through for them for the biggest day of the year - and the Tribune gets greedy over a few thousand dollars??

And risking additional circulation and newsstand sales in the process?

Here they are admitting that advertising is a reason people buy the thing. Must not be for the content.


: This is really underhanded. They say the price is higher to cover cost of the thicker printing and because of the added value of the plethora of ads in this edition. But the plethora of ads bring in a ton of revenue itself.
