Feb 19th 2013, 18:45

Surviving as a free downtown print weekly since Richard Nixon was President is no mean feat. So kudos to Los Angeles Downtown News editor and publisher Sue Laris for making it to a 40th anniversary year.

For this week’s celebratory issue, Laris has penned a long and very amusing essay titled “How To Start Your Own Newspaper.” The piece starts out as a checklist for prospective media barons, before eventually detouring to a golden anecdote:
