Hey, that' funny: I thought the media was dominated by socialist hippie liberals...<br /><br />...hmmm, maybe it's time to start a classified ad section on <A HREF="http://realmadison.org" REL="nofollow">RealMadison.org</A>...caheidelbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03261598066395322681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-25470628289495289382009-05-30T22:24:54.450-06:002009-05-30T22:24:54.450-06:00The gobbling up of auto dealers into one powerhous...The gobbling up of auto dealers into one powerhouse volume dealer may also be influencing the other major media in Sioux Falls, the Argus Leader.<br /><br />In case you haven't noticed, the Argus Leader did away with its classified section except for weekends.<br /><br />Want to buy a pet, a car, a motorcycle? You'll have to wait until Thursday because there are no classified ads on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday anymore.<br /><br />I called and asked about the change, thinking they accidentally left it out, but the Argus explained they did a survey that showed people only look for vehicles, pets and campers on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.<br /><br />My guess is the large dealers don't want to feel obligated to buy advertising seven days a week, along with the fact that the Argus priced itself out of the market for consumers who want to run any type of classified ad.<br /><br />Who ever heard of a daily newspaper that doesn't run daily classifieds?GoldManhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09478566547133172418noreply@blogger.com
