And they fit so much on one page, with actual information!

My city’s paper these days is a pamphlet of cut and pasted Washington Post and AP “hot takes” that arent worth even glancing past the headline.

Not only journalism...people used to actually read papers, not just glance at them. And some took two or three papers a day.
