->> The one on there for the Augusta Chronicle is our first edition that was printed at around midnight.

We had a total of 3 editions, and each one had a different photo of Obama on the cover. We ran a second press run yesterday afternoon and a third this morning to sell to the line of people at our cashier's office today.

The racks can't be filled fast enough. Newspapers are alive and well! This week, at least.

This Sunday's edition will have a reprint of Wednesday's frontpage on the inside and we're also selling glossy prints of the front page, and I've heard of other papers laminating theirs and selling it. The business people are milking this for all it's worth, and rightfully so, I'd think.

->> Very interesting to see how news is played across the country. I wish you could see the International editions for Nov 6 since most of them were past deadline for the results on the 5th.

Gotta like Brazil:

A dead body and girls in bikinis on the front page.

But how could you dismiss the cover of the Pascagoula, MS Mississippi Press?
