The answer is quite simple really.

The dead tree media should use all of the revenue generated by their loyal and devoted readers to place paid results at the top of the Google SERP.

If not that how about a bailout? Then reporters and editors can only be paid when their stories increase circulation, ad revenue and the delivery drivers tips.

If any reporters and editors complain they have to publish their names and address on page A 2. With Obama seeking authority to seize any business-U.S. Seeks Expanded Power to Seize Firms- in the public interest he can seize the newspapers and appoint a News Czar-perhaps under Lonely Timmy.

Franco’s Spain
Germany
Italy
USSR
China-both of them
North Korea
Viet Nam
Cuba
All over Africa
Asia
Latin America

Why should we be different? Are we not Citizens of the World?

[...] AdvertisingAge magazine (online) reports that Google is discussing it’s ranking algorithm with members of the mainstream media. They seem to think that with Google on their side they’ll recover from the lost advertising revenue that resulted from decreased circulation. But I think that rather than bring up the mainstream media it will bring Google down. (h/t MichelleMalkin.com) [...]

When you want to know what NYT has to say about Gaza, you Google “New York Times Gaza.”

If you just want to learn about Gaza you Google just “Gaza” and maybe Wiki is where you want to start.

If these people don’t even know how to word an appropriate search then the rest of us shouldn’t be forced to read what they are publishing.

On a joyus note, editorial cartoonist Bill Day lost his job at the left leaning Commerical Appeal in Memphis…

Now if they can just get rid of Wendy Thomas (formerly of the Balitmore Sun), then the paper might be worth buying again in the future. For those that don’t know her prose, lets just say she makes the rev jackon and sharpton look like hard-core Regan conservatives.

Lets just say tonight, I might have to drink a few pints while bowling to celebrate!

I just saw this. It seems Sen. Ben Cardin-D MD had introduced this bill to help "save" newpapers.

....the Newspaper Revitalization Act would allow newspapers to operate as non-profits, if they choose, under 501(c)(3) status for educational purposes, similar to public broadcasting.

OH boy, Just what we need, another "revialization act".

They just want to control content. Google works fine:

now jd you know that’s not totally true. npr is required indoctrination at most colleges, so they have a few listeners, just as prisoners make up a large audience for oprah.
