And they will do with it, it’s like no one buys a newspaper any more. Don't like yesterday’s news or the left slant they need to print.

Like we stated in another thread, the papers are dead meat. Who's going to
pay for real reporting? Most internet news just parrots what's in papers.
And network TV couldn't find a good story if Paris Hilton crapped on the
building's front steps. They mostly follow whatever the papers print."The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." --Thomas Jefferson -
The only value I see in newspapers are with the small local papers (all we have around here). Even then, as long as you're paying your subscription, you get free access to the online paper in PDF format. Can we stop killing trees already?
Even our "small" local paper has a "online only" subscription plan, that's cheaper than getting it delivered to your door. It's great
Ludicrous gibs! -

Yea, Oreilly is slamming the left wing newspapers every night saying they are going out of business. Of course he neglects to mention all the more mainstream papers that are struggling too. Just a little spin in the no spin zone.

O'Reilly is not implying that the other papers are not having problems, he only talks about the left wing papers (also the largest papers in the country) becuase of their ability to influence perception by the way the choose to report news. He would agree that all newspapers are struggling. -

I just find it funny, that they're paying 14%! What's prime now, 4%? I guess it's cheaper than the rate they would've gotten on Mulberry st. but still........:DI refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

If most people knew their American History better they'd realize that even today newspapers are far less partisan than 100 years ago.
O'Reilly, has IMHO, become far less balanced in the past year. It's pretty rare for him to have on both sides of an issue anymore. Not to mention his complete failure to challenge Ann Coulter, Laura Ingram, etc.. Not that he has turned into Sean Hannity, but still I miss the effort in getting both sides on the air.
As for the NY Times and the 14% loan, they are dying under the weight of some of the obscene salaries they pay.Review Site_ (((AudioPursuit)))

Bill O is a great barometer if you want to know what the 'Right' is thinking as well as being great entertainment.
As for the NYTimes. How many people actually believe that ANY journalism is OBJECTIVE. And I do mean ANY. Left or Right! The intelligent citizen will consult as many different sources as s/he can and even then it's pretty hard to 'actually' know what is 'really' happening. Every journalist has some kind of agenda; they are told at their schools of journalism that they should be impartial. Then they get into the real world and...well, they start to think about their careers, about competition, about their paycheck, about who's paying their newspapers bills, and, and, and. They even worry about policies like Tax Cuts because the best of them make enough money to have to worry about their income (taxes).
There are really very few 'good' 'honest' and 'intelligent' journalists left in our gloriously freedom of speech West!
Sorry for the tirade but I had a lot of roommates who went to the Best Schools of journalism in the country?

Watch BBC news for a while. That will change your outlook on American
politics."The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg." --Thomas Jefferson -
LOVE the tag on this one.
I believe that reporters on both sides can often show their own preference, and often it can be left-ish. . . . but if anyone thinks that the bosses and owners of any of these consolidated media creations are remotely leaning Left, they have more pressing cognitive defects that should be dealt with prior to having an opinion.-Ignorance is strength - -

They may be less partisan then 100 years ago but they are 50 times more partisan then they were since I can remember and I grew up in the 1950's, so I'm no brainwashed kid like most of the generation X people are.
The NYT, LAT etc are DYING because they cannot attract ad revenue, plain and simple. They cannot do that because they are a mouth piece for 1 political party. I challenge you to read a NYT newspaper from the mid to late 19650's and before and see for yourself how they have sold out their credibility in the pursuit of a far left agenda. -

Your argument, a common one from the clueless left, that although the reporting is left in the mainstream media, the OWNERS are not. First of all you haven't any proof that a majority or even close to a majority of newspaper owners are left OR right leaning and second, if we include the networks, who reach the most people in their nightly news shows we KNOW the heads of the news dept's and programming ALL lean left and have been documented as contributors to the Democrat Party.
And to stick a knife into your argument about owners of newspapers being right wing, if this is true and their newspaper is FAILING, why are they allowing it to do so when all it would take was to tell the editors to start reporting ALL the news and to do it fairly? -
