Wither Goest the Newspaperman? Why Blogging is Killing Print Media. |

Whither goest the newspaperman, that bastion of bulletins, that purveyor of print?
He is, I’m afraid, about to be swallowed up by the electronic era.
When I was in college, I wanted to be a reporter. I wanted my stories to be delivered with a thwack! on the front porch. To be folded up and carried in a suit pocket. To be clipped and stuck to the fridge. I wanted to use words like “lede” and “slug line.” I wanted to rip my story out of a typewriter, and shout “COPY!” (I used to do this when I wrote for my college newspaper, to great laughs from my editor.)
