It's nobody's fault

I didn't want to leave the impression in my last blog post that I am blaming any site or company for what's happening to newspapers. The newspaper companies have done plenty to dig their own graves.

The main point I wanted to make was that the crisis facing newspapers is largely off people's radars because it doesn't seem relevant to our lives. But it is. My hope is that my blog post will encourage you to learn more about this and talk about it with your friends.

Here are some links if you're interested in learning more:

As Einstein is reputed to have said, in the midst of great problems lies opportunity. We have a business problem (not a readership problem), and perhaps we can figure out a new business model together.
