Somebody needs to tell that to McCaw. Although she has time and time
again promised us "the best coverage of local news to be had," the
only thing "being had" are those readers who were naive enough to
believe her.

As noted in The N.Y. Times article "a newspaper dominated by wire
articles would offer little that was original — and little temptation
to a reader who could just as easily go to Google or Yahoo for news."

And these days, the News-Press certainly fits the description of "a
newspaper dominated by wire articles."

So if Wendy is wondering where her readers have migrated to, the
answer is the Internet, where many of her advertisers are no doubt
fleeing to as well.
