		Metro International Chief Operating Officer Jens Torpe says the company expected to do well when it established "Metro" in Prague, but was surprised at the newspaper's ready acceptance and its quick turnaround from startup to profitable venture.
		Newspapers were fading, they said, because young people didn't have time to read them and newspapers were so fat that advertisers feared their messages were drowning in the competitive flood.
		Metro International's Torpe says the marketing experts and the newspaper people pooled their experience to turn the liabilities of traditional newspapers into assets for the "Metro" papers.

	Metro: Newspaper's FreeCityBus axe claims 'ridiculous'
		"Because when asked to do so by the Yorkshire Evening Post Metro refused to prejudge the outcome of the six-month trial, when it is barely a quarter complete the paper ran a story with the alarming headline 'Free shuttle bus faces axe this summer'," said a Metro spokesman.
		"The Yorkshire Evening Post would, quite rightly, be among the first to condemn Metro if it were to announce that we would be holding a six-month trial of a project, as is the case with FreeCityBus, and then make a decision on the project's future with just a quarter of the trial complete," he continued.
		Metro told the Yorkshire Evening Post's reporter, while response to the FreeCityBus has, to date, been overwhelmingly positive, a decision on its future will be made, as it should be, at the end of the trial.
