Newspaper news

One of bloggers' recent blogs of note was newspaperproject.org. They are trying to exchange ideas to keep newspapers vital and vibrant in the coming years.
So, do newspapers have a future? Yes. Unfortunately, 100 years ago if you asked if there was a future for people who clean horse poop off the streets, the answer would have been yes also. The future has fewer opportunities for newspaper reporters, likely less glamourous than the ones they've become used to.
In sports, it means goodbye traveling with the pro teams across the country and hello to more high school and youth coverage.
