Just lame news magazines and having to wait until 6:30PM to get the news on TV. I can remember those days. Damn, I'm old.

I remember those days also. Time & Newsweek have private tantrums every day I'm sure when they contemplate what they have squandered and/or what has been taken from them, i.e., the privilege of telling the unwashed masses what to think.

Just be glad we lived to see their demise.

Back then it was nightly news and waiting for the Sunday NYT to be tossed on my doorstep.

Amen to that and by the way, the demise of the mainstream media is not over yet. They still have further to fall and it is only a matter of time before TIME and NEWSWEEK and the rest of their ilk go out of print entirely.
