Examiner Distribution Trends White

This week’s City Paper column by the always-on Erik Wemple examines the overwhelming racial imbalance in the distribution of the new Examiner.

The paper, which proudly touts its exclusive home delivery audience, delivers about 50,000 of its quarter mil daily press run to the District, and the City Paper decided to run a little investigation of where those papers get delivered. Their results? “If you’re a D.C. resident who gets the Examiner with your bathrobe and morning coffee, you’re in all likelihood white and very rich.”
