We are losing the newspapers without a solid media infrastructure existing on line to replace them. Most of the online sites are not originators of the news but rather a regurgitation of stories found in the wires or newspapers.

There is no dearth of good journalists and trained literary writers (MFA programs in writing have boomed and are spitting out thousands of hungry young writers each year.) This issue is print v. electronic media. There's a restructuring going on, and certainly the nature of electronic media will add to the evolution of the shape of news, but it's the only thing I think we *don't* have to worry about so much.

Jill knows the journalism end of things, so she's an expert there. I can tell you that the literary end of the continuum-- for electronic journals-- is healthy and surging in both readership and a great creative global comingling.
