The rush to publish financial results follows a government cabinet taskforce on pricing, which forced newspapers to cut prices and advertising rates by half at the end of June. The taskforce overlooked independent newspapers in a review allowing state newspapers to hike cover prices by 20 percent and advertising rates by 50 percent at the end of August.
