Philadelphia Inquirer to Outsource Printing

I found two parts of the link most interesting.

The first is that the weekday circulation of the Daily News and the Inquirer is only about 90,000.

The second is that the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times are consolidating their national printing contracts into fewer and fewer facilities, which leads to even more consolidation of printing.

And if it cheaper to consolidate printing of a paper in a single plant then it is even cheaper to consolidate the various papers into one newspaper. Cheaper usually winds out and we will see even more consolidations.
