...news service, it's only "like switching on the radio news on the hour," Cole says. Of course, the dumbing-down debate has been around as long as newspapers themselves. "Free papers reach a broad cross section of the population," points out Ingela Wadbring, researcher at the University of Gothenburg's Institute of Journalism and Mass Communication in Sweden. "They are read by young people, immigrants, the unemployed and people with low income. This is very positive." And free news doesn't necessarily mean second-hand news.

Even in public, European Commission President Romano Prodi said, "I wasn't enthusiastic the morning after Nice and haven't changed my view since."
