How the Internet is impacting news and newspapers

The editor of the “Guardian” today tells his readers:

” .. we’re well aware that, increasingly, you tell us that what you want from the printed newspaper changes as you seek out, or absorb, breaking news from the web, mobile, TV and radio. Half of you now read the paper in the evening, by which time you want more pieces that explain events and contextualise them.”

This is one illustration of how the Net is reshaping the landscape of news rapidly andy dramatically. This is the subject of my latest bimonthly column on Internet issues which you can read here.
