Other people have their opinions, but I always thought of Newsweek as doing more harm than good. So it doesn't bother me that it has been sold - it just means it will voice a new set of opinions rather than the ones it used to voice. Old media manufacturing its own 'experts' to replace the previously useful 'experts'. And as for Jon Stewart - "Who is going to be doing the reporting?" Jon Stewart asked. "If we're all aggregators, if we're all commenting, if we're all analyzing, who exactly is going to be doing the reporting?" - can I raise a little voice, and say "me?" Or maybe, "we?" Because, you know, that's what we're doing here. Not that Newsweek would notice (p.s. I didn't like Catcher in the Rye either).
