There is another similarity between horses and newspapers.
They both make a mess in the street with their excrement.

i have not seen anybody reading a printed newspaper in several years
even on trains where they used to always read newspapers, now everyone that isn’t a begger or shake-down artist or break-dancer or molester or sleeper......is glued to their computers and smartphones
no papers
