Now that is what is called targeted advertising

Ok we know the New York Times is tanking in value. You need to somehow increase readership, where do you advertise?

Why MSNBC of course! Although I think the Morning Joe audience is likely to be less excited by the prospect then the views of the rest of the lineup.

Update: Massive Irony alert. Do you remember this:

I can’t think of the New York Times without thinking of my favorite writer Glenn Reynolds. Of course he is not a professional writer but a law professor who blogs for at Instapundit I am one of his many blog children. I never forget that when I started reading him in 2001 he used to have a quote on the top of his page saying “The New York Times of Bloggers.” I remember when he removed from his site thinking its absence enhanced his reputation.

The day the New York Times can call itself the Instapundit of Newspapers is the day its stock will not be tanking, its building will not need to be mortgaged and will be worth reading again.

I just went to Instapundit and saw an ad for subscriptions to the New York Times. That the times hopes to improve it’s bottom line by advertising with Glenn brings a huge smile to my face.
