Zimbabwe papers struggling to publish

A growing financial crisis at Zimbabwe's Mirror Newspapers group is putting production of the Daily Mirror in jeopardy. According to the Zimbabwe Standard, the group - owned by the Central Intelligence Organisation - is struggling to publish because it owes so much money. As a result, it is printing just 1,000 copies a day which are distributed in Harare and Bulawayo. Some estimates suggest the debt is almost $160 billion. (Via thezimbabwestandard.com)
