How To Save Print News Media, World's Finest Style!!

Like much of print journalism these days, the Gotham Gazette is in serious financial trouble:

But here's one solution--find a billionaire "angel" to solve your problems!

But...

Bruce Wayne, if you're so worried, you could just BUY the newspaper--and as it's about to shut down, you could probably get it for pennies on the dollar.

Also, if raising circulation is the concern, I would think that Bruce Wayne could easily "arrange" an exclusive interview with Batman, a ride-along in the Batmobile...you know, all the stuff that works so well for the Daily Planet.

And speaking of the Planet...Bruce reaches out to Clark Kent for help, because apparently there are no competent reporters in Gotham. But there's no way Perry White would agree to loan out his star reporters, right? Unless you use reverse psychology:


I guess the Planet will just publish recipes or something for the next 30 days...

But there's even more trouble in Gotham!



And what kind of editor is Lois?

Total tyrant.

Fortunately, Superman and Batman manage to track down that big crime scoop...but how to get the paper out in time?


So, all's well that ends well!

That's the way to save modern newspapers--get a billionaire to steal top talent from other cities' papers, and use non-union labor to distribute your papers!!
