Register arrives as Tribune undercuts the Times - LA Observed

Register arrives as Tribune undercuts the Times - LA Observed

"I heard one sane-sounding speculation over the weekend: that Kushner just has to keep a foot in LA County long enough for the new parent of the Times to go out of business and put up the LAT for sale at a deep discount. Kushner might then be able to afford to buy the Times, something he reportedly can't do now. Kushner insists that he has a ten-year business plan for the new LA Register. We all start to see on Wednesday, provided the paper is given away free on the web and the stories make a splash. Otherwise, the community of readers who actually consume LA Register stories could be basically unnoticeable." -Kevin Roderick

    How can the paper get any cheaper? It's already on par with the Penny Saver.
