Price issue

To the editor:

The price for an annual subscription to the Journal-World is $149.50. The price for an annual subscription to TV Guide is $39.52. If your Journal-World has the TV Week supplement, you don’t have to subscribe to TV Guide, so you might say that the real price for your subscription to the Journal-World is $149.50 minus $39.52, or $109.58.

Another way of looking at it is that by discontinuing the supplement, the Journal-World effected a price increase of 35.9 percent.
