“Backup “Plan B”s abounded. Everything from writing books and seeking university posts to more dire prospects, such as becoming a colourfully-vested Wal-Mart greeter.”

Narcissistic Guardian leftists bray about the supposedly stupidity of America's great unwashed to try to pin the blame on anything but the donkey.

Journalism's statesmen and academics may differ, but many reporters have concluded that the fault is neither in our stars, nor in ourselves - but in our audience. Middle-aged readers say other media now trump newspapers.

If they want any information, they can get it from blogs - the hobbyist, derivative haven for karaoke journalists.
