Newspapers arent gonna back any device that does not have wireless distribution (atleast wifi)
the cost to send these new papers will be expencive especially with ads and pictures on the kindle. sprint wants a big cut.
amazon is producing the device, maintaining the server side, hosting the papers, managing subscriptions, acting as Customer suppport. they need to be paid for this too.
the Newspapers will be putting out the content, and getting 1/3rd of the subscription fee. + all ad revenue. in the paper world, from what I hear they make absolutely nothing from the subscription price, that just pays for the printing and delivery.
