...This is still an extremely healthy business, not a business facing imminent doom. 85% of adults in the U.S. are either reading a newspaper every week or visiting its site. In 30 years, the Web will be a much stronger component, but you will still see a powerful print product that people want to pick up and read. There will be advances in newspaper delivery: not just Web sites, but a printed product on a notebook of some kind that you could access electronically.

The attempt at a creative and educational film that would compel America to change its ways results in a badly written guilt trip that lasts just under two hours. On the whole, each actor in the ensemble cast...
Senator Rick Santorum (R-Pa.), the great American sage, once said “As the hobbits are going up Mount Doom, the Eye of Mordor is being drawn somewhere else…It’s being drawn to Iraq and it’s not being drawn to the U.S. You know what?
