Taking a cue from the late Andy Rooney of 60 Minutes, have you noticed how newspapers have shrunken in size but the price per copy has gone up?
I took a look at a couple of newspaper racks this morning while at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.
The first one was of the China Daily (if memory serves). Its price was 25 cents. Next to it was the Los Angeles Times. Its price was $2.00.
$2.00 for a newspaper?! And a shrunken one at that!
What's the world coming to?
