When revenue is called 'online,' not 'print'

It's sleight-of-hand, says one Gannett Blog reader, in my post on fourth-quarter online revenue growth. "The decisions on how to allocate the revenue will depend as much on internal property politics, corporate politics and the publisher's future employment goals as anything else,'' the reader's comment says.

My question: Is there any third-party auditing procedure to keep the company from sandbagging Wall Street over how revenue is booked? Use this link to e-mail feedback. See Tipsters Anonymous Policy in the sidebar, upper right. Or leave a note in the comments section, below.
