More on LAT numbers
Several readers offering their thoughts on an earlier post about the paper's circulation decline wonder how it compares with other big dailies.

But based on a quick survey, I couldn't find any with as precipitous drop in circulation (though the Washington Post has taken a pretty big hit).
