Death of a Paperboy

Give the paper back to the trees and destroy our eyes with the blinding light of the truth on the glowscreen in real time.

aka print newspapers are dying a slow death in America.

From the Economist:

Much of this decline is being blamed on the rise of the internet, which offers free, round-the-clock coverage, and which has provided a new, better home for classified advertising, once the bedrock of most newspapers’ revenue.

Oops.

Later in the article:

Mr Murdoch’s enthusiasm is a reminder that not all newspapers are suffering. He bought the Wall Street Journal last year, and is investing in a vigorous expansion of its political coverage and international news. This foray on to the traditional turf of the Times seems to be working: the Journal’s circulation is rising.


Hmmm... I wonder why....













Could it be.... SATAN??!!
