An AP article posted in this morning's amNY described a scenario in which News Corp.'s The New York Post and Wall Street Journal would join together with Zuckerman's Daily News on some business operations (delivery, etc.) to help lower costs and improve the flow of operations for all three papers. The NYP and Daily News, particularly, are fierce competitors in the tabloid market, and a deal between them seems like a left field possibility, but with the print newspaper environment becoming an increasingly difficult place to exist, even rivals become friends in order to stay alive.

In a related article in the July/August issue of The Atlantic, Rupert Murdoch describes his visions of the Wall Street Journal taking over the The New York Times as the world's paper of record.
