Governing (a Poynter publication)
When all news is online, a daily newspaper in San Diego or Jacksonville or Milwaukee shouldn't have to post national and international wire stories, says
Andrew Donohue of voiceofsandiego.org. "Why do [readers] need wire coverage from their local newspaper? I see the New York Times Web page becoming everyone's A section, and see the reader then simply switching sites to go to the B section for local news. And, because we don't have to worry about being anyone's A section, we never have to balance the newsworthiness of a mayor's announcement vs. the death of the Palestinian prime minister." || Related
