Monday's paper used to include a local business section, which started to wither away to a page or two within the last couple of years.  Now they've launched Capital Business, which I've just subscribed to after getting complementary copies for the past month:http://washington.bizjournals.com/washington/stories/2010/03/15/daily7.html

It's a 40-page newsprint magazine that provides a lot of information about business, mostly federal contracting, in the DC/VA/MD metro area.

I think this is one way the Post is trying to survive.   You also have to be a Post subscriber (heh, heh, I almost wrote *survivor*), so they get that revenue stream as well.
