New York Times raises newsstand price to $1.50

 NEW YORK - The New York Times Co. will increase the Monday-Saturday newsstand cost of its flagship paper by 25 cents to $1.50, the publisher said Wednesday.

Times Chief Executive Janet Robinson said the price increase for The New York Times will take effect Aug. 18. The company has already raised home delivery prices for the paper 4.5 percent in two separate hikes since last July. That helped overall circulation revenue rise 2.5 percent in the latest quarter.

The vaunted NY Times, drowning in it's own hubris.  Dead tree print is dead.
