Mathew's comments: Online doesn’t compete with newspapers

Alex Beamish · 3 years ago

We probably heard the same arguments about radio affecting newspaper sales or VHS recorders affecting movie attendance. Online news actually complements newsprint reporting. That's it. On-line should not try to do in-depth reports, and hard copy shouldn't try to be up-to-the-latest-minute.
