A new american tabloid featuring Céline

[Ronny83]

On Feb. 1, a new free-of-charge newspaper made its debut in Washington, a six-day-a-week tabloid called the Examiner. The next day, The Post wrote a straightforward story about the new paper, reporting that, according to the Examiner, an estimated 260,000 copies were distributed through news racks, hawkers at Metro stations and carriers who delivered it to homes in targeted, upscale neighborhoods in the District, Maryland and Virginia. The Examiner's owner, Clarity Media Inc., is, in turn, owned by billionaire investor Philip F. Anschutz. The Post, amazingly, got the name of the new paper wrong in a photo caption, calling it the Express, the name of The Post's free tabloid.

 

The first edition featured, among other things, a front-page picture of Canadian singer Celine Dion, plus an inside interview with Dion and a review of a new CD of music from the film "Ray." Post reporter Annys Shin, in her story about the debut, noted that the interview was about Dion's new show, "A New Day," but that the Examiner story didn't mention that the show was produced by a division of another company owned by Anschutz and that the CD was produced by another company co-owned by Anschutz.

 

On the second day, I noticed a story and picture on Page 4 of the Examiner that I didn't see in The Post or the Washington Times. It was about the D.C. Council honoring the local professional soccer team, D.C. United, which is also owned by Anschutz, although the connection was mentioned in that story. Well, enough of that. The Post keeps me plenty busy.

I hope someone can buy it and scan it for us.
