the best thing that could have happened to newspapers…
…was the creation of the internet. The web’s been around well over a decade and practically every newspaper seems to still think it was the worst thing that could have happened to them. The important thing about newspapers - as I naively thought - was reporting on the news, not the physical manifestation of that on dead trees. Newspapers would have to be pretty silly to let non-news organizations usurp them completely on news, right?
