Been playing this since it came out and still i see people complaining about the newspaper. Its pricey and low pay for a reason. It provides the lemonade to the donut shop with x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7 with the car wash and pizza shop getting an extra x5 and shrimp boat to oil rig with X11 and X5. Its a boosting factor, IE take a real newspaper. There's ads and people read ads, then said people buy stuff because of said ad, hence money in that company's pocket.
