Common Demoninator Still in Trouble

The Common Denominator, D.C.'s "Independent Hometown Newspaper," is still in financial trouble. Despite an outpouring of support from readers and others since the publisher in an Oct. 18 editorial cast doubt on the newspaper's survival, The Common Denominator is still publishing for now, but needs an infusion of cash, fast.

Among its needs, the newspaper needs to bolster its advertising and circulation departments and needs local ownership partners.
