The economic model was lots of advertising

Go find a newspaper from 2000 or earlier. It will have whole sections (20 pages or so each) of advertising for jobs, real-estate and other classifieds. In some places every government job had to be advertised in the newspaper.

All that paid for the newspaper. Usually before it was even printed.

Thats the source of cost you need to replace.
