Media Buy Vancouver's Newspaper

Posted by Sarah Mirk on Thu, May 26, 2011 at 11:32 AM

Vancouver's twice-monthly alternative newspaper is for sale. And it's only $75,000! Think of the possibilities!

For the cost of two Hummers, you could own an entire newspaper. Remember, this is the paper that broke the news that last year's Bethany Storro acid attack was a con. You could do a historical exposé on why Esther Short slapped a French man named Facette in the face. You could photograph scofflaw adults who refuse to wear bicycle helmets. You could take photos of guys in awesome sweatshirts for the New York Times. These ideas are free. Take them.

Maybe Damos could buy the paper and turn it into a tinfoil hat catalog.
