Newspapers have an extraordinary amount of local content, including real estate listings and restaurant reviews.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Some of those stories in local newspapers are just as dull and boring as the stories that I get from on-line services, which are basically sort of straight news.
The newspaper is a marvelous medium. It is extraordinarily convenient and cheap. Let's see. This one cost 75 cents. Now that's a little high. I bought it when I was downtown this morning.
We sort of read two or three big newspapers but we don't get the flavor of the local events, the local news as much.
From the beginning on, newspapers have prospered for one reason: giving readers the news that they want.
Newspaper reporting is really storytelling. We call our articles 'stories,' and we try to tell them in a way that even people who don't know all the background can understand them.
The newspaper offers something very different from Google's aggregators. It offers a value system, an idea of what matters in the world. Newspapers need to start articulating that value.
The printed newspaper is a powerful showcase for news, opinion and advertising.
Local television news, on both radio and television, is so appalling. Makes print journalism look like the greatest stuff ever written.
I think that a great newspaper is one that puts a real premium on digging to get the story behind the story.
The advertisements in a newspaper are more full knowledge in respect to what is going on in a state or community than the editorial columns are.
