Price of The Times
Rather puzzled to see that Northcliffe "reduced the price of his newspapers to two cents". It was (and is) priced in British currency. I think in 1914 the price was reduced from 2d to 1d, but don't have a source to hand. DuncanHill (talk) 00:50, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , Er... that's what the New York Times says, but perhaps it is converted to American currency for the sake of their readership. The NYT was still a rather local paper compared to how it is today. I'll look into what British/Canadian papers say on the matter Eddie891 Talk Work 01:26, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I've clipped a Montreal paper here Eddie891 Talk Work 01:31, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * this clipping suggests it was indeed a penny paper. Is that enough to change it, do you think? Eddie891 Talk Work 01:36, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
