[NU Sports] The Media (was: CFB Postseason...Survey Says...)

[MHRJGScott at aol.com]

Fair enough but I remember about 10 years ago I was still reading the  
Sentinel (a Trib paper) the NYT, the WSJ, the Economist, Business week,  Forbes, 
Fortune and a few others in paper form. Now I read the Sentinel and SI  in paper 
form and 20 other publications on the web, I get a lot more "serious  details" 
which I can cross reference on Wickapedia or search on Google, it is a  new 
world for news, papers are going back to what they do, classified (although  
Craig's list, etc are killing them) movie reviews (see rotten tomatoes) and  
breaking news (try 24 hour local news on TV)  My friends in the newspaper  
business are depressed for good reason, like the yellow pages, it has been  killed 
by the internet.

Much to  reporters' dismay, what you see in the paper is actually much more 
driven by  you, the reader. So if we're pointing fingers at the quality of 
stories seen  in newspapers these days, with short snippet articles, loads of 
gossip and  fluffy pieces that ignore serious details going on, just remember that 
the  other four are back at  you.
