New York Times Should Get a Major Mogul Bailout

Investing in NYT as a sustainable business model is ludicrous. It is analogous to saying invest in horse carriages when model T is being rolled out. There may be some short term trading opportunities, but NYT has no future.

The familiar arguments based on traditional factors such as economy, cost management and so on are nothing but smoke & mirror. Sane money would not touch NYT with a 10 foot pole. Any investment can only be based on dogma and nostalgia.

Too Many People Don't Care If Newspapers Die

Coorection. Too many people do not care if NYT and the likes die.

This Week in Saving Newspapers

They are colluding on the content anyway, why not collude and make content unavailable freely. World has moved past news papers. Bye bye NYT.

News Can't Go It Alone

With search, blog and other things available in the internet I can do it by myself all the things that the newspaper purported to do. I have stopped reading newspaper for more than 3 years and when I benchmark my knowledge and understanding of issues with others reading newspaper, I can comfortably conclude that I am better informed than the regular readers of newspaper. Newspapers are very biased and have their own agenda. Why should I pay then?

Newspaper Death Watch

Finally junk paper got the deserving junk bond status.

I am taking memory pictures of the dead news papers while the news papers were publishing the photos of fallen soldiers coming home and publishing national secrets.

Tears of joy.....
