There's been a lot of hand-wringing lately over the state of the newspaper business caused by the announced bankruptcy of the Chicago Tribune and the reported loan taken out by the NY Times to stay afloat. This has led to an ever-increasing discussion of how to save the newspaper business these days as economic issues and the internet have taken away a huge, huge slice of their business. While there are plenty of people out there with ideas on how to fix the business and even if it is worth fixing, I think I have the solution on how to save the newspaper business, mainly to follow the lead of the British Tabloids and throw in pictures of topless women.
It's just that easy.
Journalistic integrity, schmournalistic integrity. There ain't no problem that can be solved in the newspaper biz like a little Lucy Pinder or Keeley Hazell. The Chronicle could hire every award winning reporters, break the biggest story in the world, and create the greatest news related web site in the country and it won't do nearly as much to help circulation as naked chicks would.
