USA Today Adds Bitcoin to its Logo to Home Page…
Anything that can raise visibility (especially visibility of acceptance-of) Crypto Currencies has got to be a good thing and this step forward in the use of Bitcoin Logo by USA Today clearly demonstrates that Bitcoin and Crypto Currencies as a whole are getting some positive PR despite the constant fear mongering by governments and financial institutions.
The USA Today, the second largest newspaper in the United States celebrated the news that Bitcoin is now approved for political campaign contributions by adding a Bitcoin to its own logo. Not only was the logo from the online edition changed but so too was the logo of the paper edition which is the widest circulated print newspaper in the United States. Currently distributed in all fifty states, The USA Today distributes papers to the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, Canada and the United Kingdom. The newspaper has its headquarters in the Tysons Corner area of Fairfax County, Virginia, and something tells me that someone at the USA Today must like Bitcoin. USA Today sells for $2.00 USD at newsstands and is often found free at hotels and airports that distribute it to their customers. Auditmedia.com shows the USA Today distribution stats for the last 6 months of 2012 as having a Circulation of 1.7 million print and digital editions and a Combined website reach of 32.2 million unique visitors & 594 million page views.
When clicked, the logo links to this article from the USA Today from May 9, 2014. The article discusses the FEC decision on Bitcoin and it’s use to fund political campaigns and can be read in its entirety here here: Via cryptocoinsnews.com
