It seems to me that since the Kindle is a device targeting a somewhat national market in the USA, wouldn't it make sense to have the only "national" newspaper available on the device (USA Today)? I mean, I don't live anywhere near any of the cities listed under the current Kindle newspaper offerings, and I HIGHLY doubt that any of my local newspapers will make it on there anytime in the near future. However, USA Today would interest me.

So, what's the deal? It seems to me they'd drum up more business with USA Today than the Phoenix or Atlanta papers.
