Sold Out

Apparently even in the digital age, people want a souvenir. All around DC today, you can't find a newspaper. I went down to see an exhibit at the National Gallery, and every single newspaper box I passed was empty, including those pictured above.

Keep in mind they print around 500,000 copies of the Washington Post each day, and from what I read online you couldn't find a paper after 9 am today. Pretty crazy, and another testament to the fact that people recognize the significance of this election.

I wonder what future generations will be more amazed by: the gigantic event of this election, or the fact that we had actual, printed newspapers.

According to local news sources, the Post is going to publish a special edition copy today, at a 'special' cost of $1.50 each, up from the normal $.50 per copy for a regular daily edition.
