The Nation does not choose to comprehend that it is syptomatic of the problem. The ultra-left diatribes it publishes differ little from the kind of garbage spewed by American newspapers. What is not said, and what is true, is that the newspapers alienated more than half of their reading public. Then, in pandering to the Democrat left they were also pandering to a population that doesn’t read. Thus, the major cities, dominated by illiterates, are a newspaper’s sinkhole. It is still possible to save the news business by combining major state newspapers in a single entity sold state-wide; one which offers an internet site. Still, it may be too late for that.
