I regard it as a very good day for media consumption when one of my favorite web sites (Slate) writes a story about one of my favorite topics (the future of the newspaper industry). As is almost always the case, Slate’s analysis was dead on the mark. Jack Shafer’s piece, ‘Already Chewed News,’ is worth reading for anyone who wants to get a sense of how newspapers are going to have to position themselves in a drastically altered media landscape in the years ahead.
