Jonathan Korman pulls a David Simon quote out of a comments thread on his own site and presents it as a mini-primer on the fall of journalism. I certainly agree with its basic sensibility, that the pursuit of maximum profits has made that field more difficult and certainly much more depraved. Then again, no one really liked the journalism story arc on The Wire.

The difficulties facing newspaper publishing are of interest to comics fans because of the newspaper strip's role within that wider enterprise.
