In Norway, we've always had a newspaper bailout, called the "press support", but there's talk about reducing it now (which I'm against). We have the highest number of newspapers per citizen of all countries in the world, which doesn't look like a coincidence to me. Perhaps you should lobby for something similar, Matt?
wow. That's crazy that they subsidize newspapers.
