Add a new rule to the ruleset, entitled Print Media Is Dead:

Each Newspaper has a Balance, which is tracked in the GNDT. It is measured in Pounds (or Pounds Sterling, or £), may be a positive or negative whole number, and defaults to £50,000.

A Newspaper with a positive Balance is Profit-Making. A Newspaper with a negative balance is Loss-Making.

Audiences and advertising are two things that could come from this.

Too confusing for this to have the same name as one of the Reputation Scores. Rename it to Profit or something.
