Many newspapers publish their front page as a PDF on their Web sites and many even publish the entire newspaper’s content.
iTunes’ capability of downloading and presenting PDFs next to podcasts makes it a great delivery mechanism.
Some publications are taking full advantage of the combination of audio and print materials.
Make magazine has a good list of Podcasts which have exploited this opportunity.

This may become more relevant in the near future as portable devices become increasingly capable of reading PDFs (most smartphones do currently).
Apple’s iPhone will include this capability from the beginning.
Why not create PDF versions of certain stories and attach them to the podcasts?
Users want print products?
Newspapers can certainly shine here.
