...save one another and themselves. Take the Philadelphia Inquirer and the Philadelphia Daily News, or CBS Radio's venture with AOL and Yahoo. As the New York Times suggests, such collusion might be the only way, though, as the authors of this report make clear, there is no magic bullet. But if the solutions aren't obvious, the report's overall message is: Will the future leaders of journalism please, please stand...

This year, work will start on the hemisphere's first bullet train, which will eventually link the two cities. High-speed rail won't mask all Brazil's flaws. But it does show, perhaps, that the country of tomorrow has a brighter future...
