It’s proving hard for people in Chicago to get copies of the Chicago Sun Times and the Chicago Tribune. So much so that lines formed on the streets, and people bought dozens of copies each. This guy was happy with his purchase, having already bought about a dozen copies, he asked for another dozen.

    Not just in America. I went down to my local newsagent, to buy a banana, and noticed that the newspapers shelves were completely empty - I’ts not often you see that.
