You hate this.

I don't hate it. I know. Because I keep asking you the same question. And for some reason, you don't want to answer it. I've answered all questions.

I think I had the best of it, really. I certainly think in newspaper terms, it was before the internet had really taken hold. And so you were the receptacle for news for people. You know, there weren't many television networks. You didn't really have cable television when I was running the papers. So papers had much more influence and much more power because they were bringing the news to people.

Yeah. People woke up in the morning and they would read their paper to find out what had happened. That doesn't happen anymore. People already know what's happened. There are millions of news networks all over cable news. There's millions of internet sites you can get the news. Everyone knows what's going on. So the point and relevance and power and influence of newspapers has dissipated.

They can still break big stories and have big influence. And if I was running one again... I'd be completely digital by now. I'd just abandon print papers altogether. But the economic model is very difficult. If you do that, you don't make as much from the digital side as you do from print. So they've got to weigh that up and somehow get through it.

I would say the difference is we can't get canceled, right? Who's going to cancel us? It's ourselves. So we have a complete freedom and a sort of liberation from the restrictions that inevitably come with working for big companies. Big companies in the media... have really struggled, I think, to move with the way young people now get their information.
