You do like to think so, don't you?  But.....

It maintains a 501(c)3 status.  That is VERY difficult for a "newspaper" to receive if you know anything about IRS rules.  "Journalism" is typically NOT one of the categories typically considered to be eligible for that particular status.  It is interesting that when an entity survives on "subscriptions," such as for a newspaper, IRS typically denies the non-profit status.  Survival depends on "contributions" - and they are typically received from those advocating a particular point of view...which is something a "newspaper" really shouldn't do.

I'll be glad to go deeper if you like.  But calling NCR a "newspaper" is not doing it any favors...and is rather misleading.   You may want to put your "LOL" on ice for a while....
