Back when newspapers were less efficient, they were better. More interesting, fewer errors — just better.

Reminds me of something Ann Coulter said last year, when someone complained that there is too much "noise" in the media industry. She said back when the Soviets only had one channel, it was always polite and quite. Then she compared it to the three networks - CBS, NBC, ABC.

Like you said - they cannot understand it is the content.

Lordy, some ponce with an accent was on Tavis Smiley last week, going on about how the Internet was basically “cheapening our media culture.” You know, people doing vids on Youtube was taking bandwidth from SERIOUS artists, like the next Great American Novel was never going to be made because all the public’s attention is sucked up by handmade cartoons. What an arrogant sot. What may happen is pompos professional ar-TEE-sts will have to learn to handle new media or lose government money they shouldn’t have been paid in the first place. You know only REAL professionals should be allowed to make art.
