All the news stuff that's fit to print
Facing a slow death, newspapers are desperately trying to reach young readers with dumbed-down tabloids full of stories about Kobe, Britney and dental bling.
By Farhad Manjoo [2006-02-17]

  • Online subscription to the NYT

    I applaud the New York Time's recent move to a paid online subscription for some its content (columnists, editorials, etc). Although, it bothered me at first, I do believe now that this is the only way they can continue to make money in the long term.

    The 20 somethings that I know (myself included) simply feel more comfortable sitting in front of a computer to read news rather than with a clunky newspaper getting your fingers dirty.
