Why would anyone ever pay for the Citizen-Times when its free online?
The fact is there is not much in either the online or print paper. This price increase will be the final nail in the coffin.
Thank goodness we have the New York Times and other real newspapers available on the internet. Who really cares about the Citizen Times?
A couple of things here. The reason for this ad being hidden in the paper is simple. Lets get the regulars to the rack and when they try to get the paper they will have to fumble for an extra quarter. Two things might happen. One, they might find the extra change and get the paper. Two, they might scream a few expletives and grab a FREE Mountain Xpress.
Remember the paper will not only be going up in price but will also be shrinking and losing sections. (LESS VALUE) This is allegedly happening at all Gannett papers
You know what is silly, is the sections that most of you like and the whole reason you buy the paper in the first place are allegedly going to be eliminated.
Sounds like Gannett has a great plan for the future of newspaper. LOL
