memo from rupe

rupe, aka the Dirty Digger, aka Rupert Murdoch, spoke on 13 April 2005 to the American Society of Newspaper Editors. His subject? The challenges of the digital age, blogs and the like, and what this all means for the well being or otherwise of newspaper and magazine publishers, editors and journos.
Not much new here, but rupe is worried. Which in and of itself is cause to rejoice. But rupe is talking about the future not just for himself but for the whole industry. Paper and ink aren't going to disappear, but the times they are a-changin'. Yes, indeed.
Rupe, however, really ought to hire a new copy editor to sort out that lower case "napoleon" and "1990's" business.
