Seasonal and cyclical changes in advertising volume affect our quarterly revenue and results of operations and may cause our stock price to be volatile.

Decreases or slow growth in circulation may adversely affect our revenues.
Our publishing business may suffer if there is a significant increase in the cost of newsprint or a reduction in the availability of newsprint.
