Frank uses the book “Dead Tree Media” by Michael Stamm to discuss the grim state of mass media newspaper publishing. Pretty soon, you may have to start a fire by burning your iPhone.

Totally agree with Frank's words... and I also miss newsprint, miss printed newspapers, and also have a problem with all the avalanche of news we get in electronic format, not sure what is true and what is not... I remember my first job out of college, working for a major National Newspaper, I was doing Quality Control for the Sunday Edition, and each press run was over 1.8M for each of the advanced runs...! That was tons and tons of newsprint!

One may miss the news from “dead tree” newspapers, but quite frankly (pun intended), one couldn't always trust what was printed in them as being honest and truthful. What is true is that it costs more to lie via printing.
