In my own neck of the woods, we've had many of the phenomena you point to, such as local newspapers that are part of larger chains getting away with as little local coverage as they can to justify filling up the advertising. I have at least one example of a start-up that started up because somebody decided to fill a space themselves, without any kind of seed funding or anything like that. Is that the normal competition that can and should happen? Why do we need to interfere with that normal phenomenon?
