Re: Newspapers: Not dead yet, but still looking for revenue

"younger" techies may have have the inside loop on technology. Un fortunately, it's a moot point. When newspapers start publishing all the news instead of carefully slected "news" to promote "opinion", they will start selling news again, whether it's on a website or on paper.

The newspapers will once again start making money when they decide to re-start reporting the news instead of their extermely biased views.
The New York and LA Times are disasters waiting to happen right along with most other mainstream "news"papers.
"Garbage" barely descirbes what is reporte as "news". I find it disgusting and a moral outrage.
How telling that I have to go to Christian and Morman sites anymore to get any idea of what is really going on in America and the world.
The only adverising these papers are going to get any revenue from is the rich Arab oil sheiks and radical Islam (Oh, no!! I just committed a political faux pas - Islam = terrorists).
"Revenue" is headed to the Middle East. I'm sure many of our national newspapers are receiving adequate support from that direction. The powers that be undoubtedly make the rounds at the very popular cocktail party scenes in New York and LA/Hollywood. Trying to get a "pulse" on what Americans are thinking by going into this party area is like reading Mother Goose to find out the truth on anything.

Oh, one last thing - the word "journalist" I think has become an oxymoron. Real journalism died a slow death in the past decade. The vomit from the current crop of "journalists" could gag a vulture.
"NY Times in trouble", go figure. I wouldn't advertise a wad of used gum there.
