Hawkers who flood subway stations with the free amNew York are squawking that their pay doesn’t amount to much more than the paper’s non-existent newsstand price.

AmNew York and publisher Tribune Co. were hit with a class-action lawsuit yesterday for allegedly refusing to pay minimum wage to workers who distribute the papers.

The distributors claim they are paid just $21 for a four-hour day – well below New York’s $7.15 hourly minimum wage – and forced to man their posts until all the papers are gone.
