I sometimes only get to the comics but partly because I’ve been reading news online off and on the day before. But I do think we read differently offline and are more likely to stumble across something interesting.
The whole touch and feel at a newspaper just brings back memories. Love to laze on a Sunday with a good broadsheet. However, this is rarely done now. Great piece.
The daughter of an Ohio Valley small-town daily newspaperman, I made Manhattan weeklies my livelihood and my social world. None of my papers survive in any form.. Several coworkers do and are still my people.. Our shared past rarely comes up in conversation. I loved that life but as news people we're engaged with today and tomorrow. If I'm nostalgic for anything, it's the long-ago clatter and leaden smell of my. father's composing room. That paper lives on, having merged years ago with the afternoon daily.
I still pick up the paper everyday for my Nonagenarian Dad when I’m with him. Sadly it’s mostly for the crossword!

It’s true. When I get together with friends who were co-workers, the past is rarely rehashed. They’ll always be great to be around!
