Mondo Times editors Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 9:49pm on Tuesday, June 9th, 2009 | In an interview on Fox Business Network on June 8, 2009, Rupert Murdoch predicted the end of newspapers in printed form:
"I can see the day, maybe 20 years away, where you don't actually have paper and ink and printing presses. I think it will take a long time and I think it's a generational thing that is happening. But there's no doubt that younger people are not picking up the traditional newspapers."

Eric Kallgren Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 1:31pm on Sunday, May 24th, 2009 | Writing in the Sunday Times on May 17, 2009, Bryan Appleyard offers a fatuous, reactionary and altogether very British indictment of Californians, the world wide web and anything else that offends his strong sense of order and tradition:
"Twenty years have passed since Sir Tim Berners-Lee created the world wide web. From 1989 to 2000 it grew exponentially. Then it crashed, and bright-eyed, cash-burning dotcoms across the world went bust. From the ashes emerged web 2.0, a cult created, engineered and run by Californians. This can be defined in many ways, but its principal features are, as with everything else in California, freedom, personal expression, letting it all hang out and making shedloads of wonga."
The full harangue:
