More profit-taking by corporate newspaper ownership on its own

First, at the corporate ownership of my current newspaper, it’s a two-day ad sales managers’ meeting at the owners’ deer hunting lodge, which probably got a decent internal profit off of charges to member newspapers as well as a business tax write-off.

Now, it’s charging more than $80 for ancillary expenses at a free seminar on PDFs. (Don’t know if people from other newspapers, as this was an open seminar, got similar billing as what the person out of our office claims.)

Just remember: you want the most capitalistic business in America, just look at your local newspaper.
