Well, I think the production of those newspaper inserts is just plain ugly.
That's what I meant by 'oh boy.' I could not be less excited about it. Oh,
logistically speaking, it's a great idea. But production-wise, it's not very
exciting. But I'm spoiled. I like expensive productions that cost a fortune.
Champagne taste on a beer budget!

Why not?

It only came out once a week before, right? It sounds totally logical to
buy into someone else's distribution (the local newspapers). Technology is
different now. The same material can fly off to presses all over the world
at the same time.

Granted, it's been 30 years since I saw Parade (that I can recall ... the
logo, not much else) and I've never seen USA Weekend, so maybe I'm missing
some undercurrent here.
