Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Sunday, November 15, 2009

A new daily newspaper is being launched in the Detroit area, where the two largest newspapers have reduced home delivery to survive in a struggling industry. Brothers Mark and Gary Stern said Friday they'll start publishing the Detroit Daily Press on Nov. 23, selling it for 50 cents daily and $1 on Sundays. Home delivery starts Nov. 30 in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties.

I'm sorry you have to live in Detroit :(

Somebody has to live in Detroit. Thank God it's not me.

It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it!

The should call it: All da News and Shit

Is the sports page just Red Wings news?

Daily Ghetto.

It'll be swell. Detroiters in the less swank arrondissments (which is nearly all of them) now have a choice of which publication to use when they want to stuff the cracks in their houses. At least, those houses still remaining...

A print newspaper start-up, now? In D-e-t-r-o-i-t? Maybe they'll bring back the Vega soon, too. Good luck there, Membo!

I was unaware that anyone could actually read in Detroit?

What's the survival rate for paper carriers in Detroit ? Is there a lull in the gunfire between 0500 and 0700 ?

Depends on the bike: mailer.fsu.edu

Good one zatoichi. Clear the street; then make the delivery. They'd need to have 2 personnel to make collections tho. One on the gun to provide cover; the other to make contact with the subscriber.

would you rather be a paper carrier in detroit or a marine in iraq ?

#13 Semtex, that depends, have the Pistons just won the NBA finals? In which case I would be anywhere OTHER than Detroit.

#1... you can thank ... for not being born Afghani or Somali or Pakis.

what is the life span of a white paper carrier in detroit?

Unless they can score a bunch of the local advertising dollars, I give 'em six months.

They need a new football team.

Gotta love the folk who voted for Dubya having the nerve to question the intellect of anybody...
