Perhaps, because the old Trib did not go gently into that good nightside. The paper's overseas edition, the International Herald Tribune (circ. 118,000), is still published in Paris by IHT Corp., a joint venture of the New York Times, Washington Post and Whitney Communications, the old Trib's last owner. Accordingly, IHT Corp. is suing the owners of the new Trib for trademark infringement. The Trib, in turn, has sued IHT and the Times for harassment and antitrust violations, asking $7.5 million in treble damages. Saffir accuses IHT of trying to prevent his paper from appearing...
...There is no way of knowing for sure; nor will the syndicates disclose how much they charge newspapers for their wares.

Nonetheless, it has just chosen a new editor, Kenneth S. Kantzer, who comes equipped with a Harvard Ph.D. Says he: "Great ideas don't have to be incomprehensible...
...genre that has long understood its local service? magazine functions. Though pressed by the Washington Post, the Times remains the best newspaper in the U.S. It is the platinum bar by which editors across the country measure their own papers. Except for the heavily financial Wall Street Journal (circ 1,465,000), the Times is the closest approximation in the U.S. to a national newspaper. Fully one-quarter of its readers live more than 100 miles from New York City. (One such subscriber is Jimmy
