They delivered late, so no. None at the train station.
bills_fan Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Your board lied, I bought the NY Post this morning and the WSJ when I got off the train, same as I do every morning. No problems.

RkFast Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Plenty of papers in my 'nabe. Bunch of racists here.
RayFinkle Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Plenty of papers in my 'nabe. Bunch of racists here. I always thought Hell would be out of papers and the coffee would be cold.
kegtapr Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 How am I going to light my fireplace tonight?
RkFast Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 I always thought Hell would be out of papers and the coffee would be cold. The only paper we get here in Hell is a copy of the Cleveland Plain Dealer the day before they got LeBron. !@#$ing annoying as......HELL.
Lori Posted November 5, 2008 Author Posted November 5, 2008 FWIW, I think the major metros are the ones getting hit hard. Makes sense, because we already know the cities skew Democrat. Also FWIW, the person looking for these was until very recently in the print business (now at a certain sports-related TV network in Ct.), and even her connections aren't much help today.

Who are you and what are you doing over here at the "Dark Side"?
kegtapr Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Who are you and what are you doing over here at the "Dark Side"? You racist.
GG Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Delivered bright & early at 6AM. Didn't notice any problems at the news stands - but it was early. Amazing though, Obama fixed the newspaper business too
Lori Posted November 5, 2008 Author Posted November 5, 2008 Who are you and what are you doing over here at the "Dark Side"? I drop in from time to time, but I do try to limit my exposure. Delivered bright & early at 6AM. Didn't notice any problems at the news stands - but it was early. Amazing though, Obama fixed the newspaper business too At least for one day ... hey, maybe he's not such a bad guy after all!

If you want me to grab anything from NYC, I'd be happy to walk down to the shop in our lobby. They had papers as of lunchtime.
blzrul Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 My Seattle PI with historic front page was delivered at 5:20 a.m. as usual.
Wacka Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Ran out of TP, so put mine to good use after I read it.
/dev/null Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Newspapers You do know there is more on the intarweb than just pr0n So, did you find a copy of your local paper today? So did you find a copy of the Kane Republican, the Bradford Times, or the Erie Times-News?

Lori Posted November 6, 2008 Author Posted November 6, 2008 Newspapers You do know there is more on the intarweb than just pr0n Yeah. Um. If I were of a mind to save today's front page, newsprint would be a heckuva lot easier than framing a monitor screen, no? So did you find a copy of the Kane Republican, the Bradford Times, or the Erie Times-News? Bradford Times? Saw the Era, wasn't impressed. (But then again, I rarely am. Yesterday: a Page 1 story on a local man who collects campaign buttons ... without any mention whatsoever of the fact that he also happens to write for said newspaper, even though his bylined story on a different subject ran right next to the picture taken of him for the button-collecting feature. Oy.) Besides, I wasn't the one looking for them. And: damn. The Chicago Tribune ended up printing 200,000 extra copies today. Of course, Sam Zell will probably be pissed about not finding a way to double-charge for the ads ...
