Jenne, I like James Cramer because his talk always has a sense of street smart. But there is only 17% of USA 30% computer population online nowadays, the old media should be able to figure out a way before they die. 70% - 80% USA work force is below college level, and a large % below middle school level, asking them to use a computer or to get to the web is a huge task, that is why the news paper or magazine with photos can and will still around. AOL's goal 'AOL everywhere or anywhere' is a high order but AOL sticks with the 'simple' policy should go a long way to reach these non-sophisticate minds at the end, but 100%? I doubt it, so the paper media should have some room to survive...
