If you are regularly receiving a newspaper subscription (or more) from the Amazon Kindle store I have a question for you. Are you getting pictures in your subscriptions? If so, are some always included or a once in a while thing?

I ask because I'm seeing a lot of posts from folks outside the U.S. who think that just because they are outside the U.S., they are not getting pictures. I don't think this is true (but I could be wrong). I think they are getting the same content with or without pictures as Kindle subscribers in the U.S.

My own experience is with the Los Angeles Times a year ago, which never had pictures (while I was subscribing, I now use Calibre and I do have pictures). Once in a while I would get a single issue of the NY Times or Washington Post and they might have one picture for the front cover and that was all.

Please share your experience. This information will be added to the Kindle Myths and Partial Truths wiki.

Thanks!
