Hi!

I was able to find average advertising costs for the things you need
except for the newspaper data.

Would these be enough for you?

Thanks.

I do need the newspaper pricing.  It's very important.

I should have been more specific.  I need the prices in CPM rates,
otherwise the comparison doesn't really mean anything.
Thanks.

I found the average CPM for newspapers, prime time TV, radio,
magazines,  daytime TV and internet in the U.S. (2000) .  This data is
from a 2002 publication.

Would these figures suit your purpose?

Thank you, Bobbie7
