I don\u2019t read newspapers anymore; we no longer subscribe; we no longer have blackened fingers; we no longer have stacks of papers in our recycle bin. \u00a0We read the news online and we watch the news on TV. TV has its ads and online has its ads, but the reports I hear all the time is that ads online aren\u2019t sufficient.\u00a0Which means this: Journalists are being laid off; journalism majors are either not finding careers or they are working for peanuts.<\/div>\n

If this is the only way these folks can maintain quality journalism and employ quality journalists, I\u2019m happy to pay for the service. We need good journalists.<\/div>\n
