Marketplace: Seattle paper eyes Web-only future

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer is considering going online only starting next week.

This is horrible news.

I like newspapers. I like the fact that there are people constantly investigating stuff that don't work for the government or the mob or Halliburton. I like to figure out how certain reporters work. That goes from big name opinion guys and gals to local reporters like Dave Clarke back in Kewanee, Illinois. They love their jobs and it genuinely shows.

I don't want that going away.

Hell, make some kind of roll out video screen that will give me the news that I want and acts like a newspaper. While I like newsprint - no, seriously, I do - I can live without ink stains. Just don't take this away from us.

On Rachel's show tonight, she discusses the problem at large across this nation.
