>>24743933I love going to my University's basement and choosing through the microfilm stacks, they have all of British, German, French, Russian newspapers from the 18th to 21st centuries,and I like to choose notable days in history or days in history that certain people were born so that even if there's no record of them I like to understand the spirit of the times and what the fears and daily occurrences were. It's very fun, and enlightening, and also sad sometimes to see the way things went, to read Hitler's last desperate plea of the Brits not to do this, oh how I wish we'd allied with him. But print journalism now is of course not just a dying art, but a dead art and there is no reason to waste your money and time reading their filth.

By and large journalism have always been parasites leeching off tragedies and tools of the state to distort the reality and manipulate the population. I won't miss them.
