This collection of essays by some veteran (mostly old) journalists is a thoughtful effort to see into the future.
Here’s one snippet from Dorothy Smiljanich, a veteran of the St. Pete Times and Tamp Tribune:
Sadly, I do not think any newspapers have a future as they are now printed. We are living in a time of transformation so vast and sweeping that only the visionaries among us (and I am not one) can comprehend its scope or imagine its ramifications.


Paul, you are doing a great job keeping us informed.
From my little corner of the world I think newspapers can survive and many will. Even with the Apple tablet, there are a lot of us that need to actually hold a newspaper, tear our articles, fold the paper the way we want to read it. The questions though are how many days a week we will get the paper and how many do we get? If you live in New York City or within 50 miles of it, how can you survive without at least the Sunday New York Times, same goes for The Courant. With 127 talented people on the third floor of the Courant and 3 morons running the place, the Sunday paper is still indispensable to most of us. Saturday through Thursday is another question.
“3 morons”…your lawyer must love you Dog….
