A QUICK CHANGE FOR THAI RED NEWS

Thai Red News, backed by the pro-Thaksin Democratic Alliance Against Dictatorship, made its debut on June 5th. But in just two editions the weekly tabloid newspaper has changed both its masthead and use of paper.
The changes in the masthead can be seen here. The first edition was printed entirely on what is best described as 'premium white' paper (as used by The Nation for its cover). Eight pages in the second edition (the cover and inside spread) use that paper but the rest is made up of a more traditional, lower quality (and cheaper) paper. Pagination remains the same as 32 pages.
The newspaper is claiming a 15,000 circulation and is offering full page colour advertising at 50,000 baht per page.
