Interesting but hardly surprising in this society of 'instant gratification' with 24 hour news channels and cellphone internet access. By the time any news comes out in print, it simply isn't news anymore. Who wants to sit and read 'in-depth coverage' of yesterday's news when we can watch live coverage of 'Balloon Boy'? Still, I do lament the day when I won't be able to grab the 'Sunday Paper' and just relax in bed for a couple of hours.
