Business question:

The news business is notorious for not making money. Do these big, global scoops have any noticeable effect on circulation or any positive business impact?

Our are they part of the civic duty element of news reporting, to be investigated no matter how much they cost in man hours, legal fees,and so on?

Or, put another way: what do the accountants make of these big investigations?

Thanks!

Fascinating stuff! The trust model is wonderful, and I've always thought it the best way to run a newspaper to ensure independence.

And thanks for letting me know it's my cake day – would never have noticed!
