"Today's" paper gets the score wrong, and a funny look at the Times
Another indication of the demise of print comes from today's print edition of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The paper, in a headline, gets last night's Brewers score wrong. The Brewers, of course, won 4-3, not 3-2. JSOnline, for the record, got it correct.

MKE folds to the pressures of the digital era
The newspaper? Who reads the newspaper anymore? I do, but sometimes I get to certain sections a day late. Much to my surprise on this sleepy Friday afternoon, I flip open the chalky, matte pages of the cumbersome print edition of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (Thursday's ed...
