News International's freesheet, The London Paper, has won the right to distribute in Network Rail's mainline stations in the capital - which includes Kings Cross, Victoria, Waterloo, Liverpool Street, Cannon Street, Charing Cross, Euston, Fenchurch Street, London Bridge and Paddington stations.
They beat a bid from rival Associated Newspapers, who already distribute morning paper Metro at those stations. Associated wanted to make their afternoon freesheet London Lite available in the evening rush hour, but will now have to continue handing it out outside the stations instead, while The London Paper gets racking on the inside.
There have been reports this week of fights between rival newspaper distributors on London's streets as three evening titles compete for attention - though most of the tension is between the Evening Standard sellers and the London Lite/The London Paper distributors (even though the Standard and Lite are both owned by Associated), because the former are losing their livelihood because of the latter.
Presumably News International are paying a rather large sum of money to distribute at the stations. I don't know exactly how much, but I'm guessing more than twenty quid.
