Remember newspapers? Well, we're celebrating what's left of them this week, 3-9 October 2010. The WWW site is pretty lame.
Cartoonist Robert Ariail has his own take on the shape of things to come.
Who'll keep tabs on our governments and corporations and hold their feet to the fire? Internet sites and blogs can help, but investigative reporting takes nuts-and-bolts journalistic skills snd resources.
We'll miss them when they are gone.
"Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter." --Thomas Jefferson
