Newsdealers say sales of Cuban Party
newspaper down considerably
HAVANA, March 19 (Moisés L. Rodríguez,
Grupo Decoro / www.cubanet.org) - Six newsdealers
in Havana say sales of Granma, the Communist
Party newspaper, have gone down considerably
since the middle of February.
One of them, who like the rest asked not
to be identified, said that towards the
middle of February his sales dropped by
20 papers every day. He said: "I get
fewer now. Some days I only get 60 or 80,
whereas before I used to get 120 to sell."
The others said their sales were down by
similar numbers.
Both vendors and readers said the newspaper
seems to be increasingly out of touch with
their needs, focusing instead in problems
around the globe.
