I remember speaking with a newspaper publisher in the mid-nineties, telling him that his chain of community newspapers should be looking at the Internet (they didn't even have a web site at that time). He laughed and said he'd get around to it someday, but he had other priorities. That chain has subsequently gone through different owners and are barely surviving. And now it's being suggested that a program might be developed to support such newspapers? Give me a break!
