1. The Wall Street Journal is read by the people who run the country.

2. The Washington Post is read by people who think they run the country.

3. The New York Times is read by people who think they should run the country.

4. USA Today is read by people who think they ought to run the country
but don't really understand the Washington Post. They do, however,
like their statistics shown in pie charts.

5. The Los Angeles Times is read by people who wouldn't mind running
the country, if they could spare the time, and if they didn't have to
leave LA to do it.

6. The Boston Globe is read by people whose parents used to run the
country and they did a far superior job of it, thank you very much.

7. The New York Daily News is read by people who aren't too sure who's
running the country, and don't really care as long as they can get a
seat on the train.

8. The New York Post is read by people who don't care who's running
the country, as long as they do something really scandalous,
preferably while intoxicated.

9. The San Francisco Chronicle is read by people who aren't sure there
is a country or that anyone is running it; but whoever it is, they
oppose all that they stand for. There are occasional exceptions: if
the leaders are handicapped minority feminist atheist dwarves, who
also happen to be illegal aliens from ANY country or galaxy as long as
they are Democrats.

10. The Miami Herald is read by people who are running another country
but need the baseball scores.

11. The National Enquirer is read by people trapped in line at the grocery store.

Amglasgow-ga,
If that is original, fantastic!
If you found it somewhere else, still very entertaining!
Thanks, Myoarin

And what do the unsuccessfol wealthy read?  
I am not sure if they are unsuccessful and wealthy nonetheless,
or if they are just successful poor.

Hi Mayo, the real challenge is to do the same with Germany: 

1. FAZ is read by the people who run the country

2. SZ is read by people who think they run the country

3. TAZ is read by people who think they ought to run the country

4. Bild runs the country.

Hi Poli-guru,
I meant to get back here in time to still wish you a happy unification day.:)

Great idea and not a bad start, but WHO is running the country?
Whoever, they should read the FAZ, but I expect that they have party
clipping services that just gives them what they think they should
read.

Handelsblatt (and German edition Financial Times) are read by the
people who own the country.

Rheinischer Merkur is read by those who think Adenauer should still be
running the country (and maybe some of them think he still is).

Münchener Merkur is read by those who don't know that Bavaria is part
of the Federal Republic (especially this weekend, the end of
Oktoberfest).

Taunus Zeitung and Starnberger Zeitung are read by the people who
really own the country - but just to keep up with local politics and
garbage collection.
(For the rest of the world, these local papers serve the two areas
with the greatest concentration of millionaires.)
Hmm, local politics and garbage collection?  Yes, that is the right pairing.

Oh, I forgot the St. Pauli Nachrichten.  Mongolia's (hi!) Sun readers'
(well, in the broadest sense of the word) eyes would pop.
