Via our anonymous-tips website widget came this correspondence December 4: “LA Times increases street price 50%… Not one mention of it anywhere on the Web. WHY?”

Well, partly BECAUSE this is not the kind of thing the LA Times or any other major daily likes to trumpet with a press release. But on our faithful reader’s behalf, we checked in with an LAT spokesperson who kindly confirmed the full details:
“The single-copy price increase went into effect on December 3 for the daily (Monday-Friday) editions and this past weekend for the weekend and Sunday editions. It affects only the single-copy prices for the print editions sold at news racks and retail locations: $1.50 for daily, $2 for weekend or Sunday.”
