A little while ago I came across a copy of the NY Times Sunday magazine and was amazed at how thin it was. In the old days there were pages and pages of ads for high-end real estate and fancy summer camps and boarding schools. Now nada.

The newspapers in my area -- Metropolitan Detroit -- are about the same size as the old larger magazines of my childhood; Life, Saturday Evening Post, etc.

While a great deal of the size and content shrinkage is no doubt due to the 'new media', I'd like to think that another significant reduction in the revenues to the newspaper publishers reflects their biased reporting and refusal to do investigative journalism the way they did in the past.
