Race to the bottom - newspapers vs. condos

After purchasing Greenwich Time and the Stamford Advocate recently, Hearst turned its attention to the Connecticut Post, parent publisher of our local Greenwich Citizen, among other weeklies. Hearst paid $155 million - the seller paid $205 million for the same package of papers twenty-eight years ago in 1980 (click link above). Hearst probably still over-paid.
