Downfall of the Print Media

"He had never heard of Powerline."

The Orange County Register is a decent newspaper based in Santa Ana, CA. I preferred their news coverage to the LA Times when I lived in California. A woman named Janet G. sent this e-mail to Hugh Hewitt, describing a conversation she had with a man at the Register's news desk. She complained about the Register not running the Halp Us photo that had already circled the globe on the blogosphere. He asked Janet where she saw it; she sent him to Power Line. He had never heard of Power Line! How could a modern newsman not have heard about Power Line? It shows how out of touch the print media is in today's world of immediate news.
