So the image at the top just cracks me up - specifically the part that says "Subscribe for $1". Lest you think me insane for being cracked up by that, allow me to show you why. Newsweek (the company, not the individual magazine) was acquired for - you guessed it - $1 - back in 2010. The stereo guy Sidney Harman (from Harman Kardon) was the one that bought it. He had to assume their vast amount of debt as well, but they were officially bought for $1. I sincerely hope he paid them in pennies.
