I remember a comedian years ago saying: "The New York Times is read by the people who run the country. The Washington Post is read by people who think they run the country. The Washington Times is read by the people who think the people who read the Washington Post are running the country. The Wall Street Journal is read by people who think that the people with money damned well oughta be running the country. And USA Today is read by people who don't care who is running the country as long as the weather maps are in color." (This was before most papers started running them in color.) Btw, awesome idea for a quiz.

totesmagotes5: I would like to make this a Curator's Pick for Population. But for me to do that, you will have to add a population tag to it. I will check back in a week or so. Thanks for a fun game!

Switched number 8. When I made the quiz, I knew there were older versions, but I figured the data for March 2012 was new and I didn't think very old surveys would have included digital subscriptions, which I thought would affect the numbers.

Well, I guessed 5 out of 20. Hey, considering that I'm not u.s citizen and I've never visited the country (and several of those newspapers surely don't have a national distribution) I think it was pretty good xD
