Worst Year Ever For Print Newspapers
04.01.2008
The Newspaper Association of American says the decline in newspaper print ads — ad revenues were down 9.4 percent — was the worst on record. Worse than 2001. Worse than 1991. More at Paid Content.
In college when it was raining, I would grab the freely available newspapers (USA Today, NYT, Regional Paper) and use them as an umbrella while walking across campus to my next class. When I got to class I would recycle them and then read Digg, The New York Times, and my RSS reader on my phone or laptop.
