How to Save the Newspaper Industry

Ziggy on the front page

-Keep subscription costs the same, but surreptitiously jack up delivery costs to $1,000,000 a day

-Replace long-winded editorial with pithy statements like “Obama bad” or, possibly, “Obama good”

-Print the paper on cheaper material, like birch bark or Kleenex

-Change every Horoscope to read “A horrible, fiery death is in your future unless you donate half your income to our paper”

-Eliminate adverbs

-Fire all the photographers; replace the pictures with crude stick-figure drawings
