Dead-tree reporting
An author I respect on a radio show I respect (big radio fan here) put it this way: "My test is simple, can I drop it in the bathtub?"
But apart from the "newspaper and books as artifacts" argument (which I think is primordially correct) there's this ... which I think is under-valued: newspapers originate a huge proportion of news. That is, newspapers do reporting. If that don't count for much then we's in real trouble!
cheers
