So an industry of middlemen, is being disintermediated by a new technology - the internet. That's a problem for them, no one likes to go out of business, so what to do? Their thinking goes: The internet is full of nerds right? It's like made up of nerds, and like nerds made it, so... internet = nerds. Now if we can get some nerds on our side they could maybe save our industry. Imagine if you will that the internet is superman, and the newspaper industry is Lex Luthor, well a nerd into journalism would be like kryptonite! Clearly we must offer full journalism scholarships to computer nerds and at the same time search for nerd investors. That'll save us, hooray!
