Why does the elitism inherent to "every profession" of the "last century" have more relevance than a piece of socially critical art by a writer who has made a career of cultural criticism (however flawed). Is the critique of news in The Newsroom irrelevant to this conversation because of the platform or because the guy had a theatre degree? Both? Regardless, I don't get your point. All things fail? Everything comes to an end? Great. Write an existential letter to NYT. My point is there is a generational myopia that is pervasive in journalism still. There is an unwillingness to acknowledge, fully, that it's over. Donezo. It's never coming back. You can call out NYT in an NYT column and you can call out Newhouse and you can point out how fucked AOL Patch is and yet you are just writing for all the readers and writers who are terrified that things are changing. It's probably the same point you are making, but I find your approach annoyingly pithy.
