CT Post/Rich Elliott

CT Post will do what so many other newspapers do, use AP reports as their articles.

Which is of course stupid. Anyone can get the AP report online. Local newspapers' value is that they are local, and can cover local events uniquely.

Sadly vowelguy, newspapers are doomed. It takes 2 hands to read a paper and most people these days have only one hand free. The other is firmly clutching their personal communication device, a/k/a their master.

Actually, some newspapers are surviving -because- they have embraced the new media. The problem so far has been finding the business economic model that allows them to get paid for the stuff they too often give away via the Internet. It's great for the reader, but not so great for the producers of content. BTW, you'd be shocked at what sports journalists (don't) earn as salary. It's a relative few the get ESPN money.
