Guardian - Padding the truth: But the truth is that circulation - at least in the short term - has little to do with a newspaper's quality or the editor's skills. Marketing campaigns, price cuts (or rises), free offers and even, as we have seen, unusual activity by a rival have more influence on sal...

Outstanding: The Crisis of Credit Visualized (via) Viz now has a website that's even slightly less shit than before, which makes me very happy. Some kind (and really quite true) words from Ian Appleby leading into the antics of the Indy and their bad habit of pretending to accept comments when they'...
