America ’09: New York Times – Sat 21st March

Delivered to Nick’s house. Not through the letterbox though – just left on the doorstep in a plastic bag.
 
A few other interesting notes about newspapers and the distribution of them:
 
1. You can buy newspapers from a machine on the street or get a free one from these machines.
2. The paper is roughly square when all unfolded. Very different form- factor to anything in the UK. Probably closest to “the Berliner” but taller still.
3. Crosswords are not cryptic and have very few black squares.
4. Print covers almost all of the paper. Much closer to the edge than seen in the UK.
