Does anyone here understand the economics of newspapers?

If there were a weekend newspaper that gave me news and sport only, maybe with a magazine but with no sections for food, travel, film, theatre or book critics, no What To Do In London, basically no fluff, then I'd be really happy and I'd buy and recommend it.

Why are weekend papers padded out so much? There has to be a good reason for it, but every weekend I buy a paper, bring it home and throw up to 50% of it straight in the recycling. Am I the only one who does this?
