Politics Without the Newspaper?

Saturday, August 1, 2009

Many people that come of out America's "Greatest Generation" are concerned with what the decline of newspapers will do with a democracy. They argue that the Internet is a great source for entertainment, and not a place to get information. For many members of my generation this is the only place where they get their information. Is this a preference or a truth? Does defending democracy depend on a print newspaper or even the newspaper function?
