Can we just talk about how sad it is that newspapers are slowly fading away? The printed newspaper is a thought out and purposeful art form. It is about sharing ideas and stories and creating dialog between different kinds of people. It is thought provoking and interesting. It is about gathering facts and stories and presenting them to the public. It is about working together on a team to provide the most interesting news that you can.
There is nothing like going to a coffee shop and reading the newspaper. No matter who you are or what you are interested in there is something in there for you. Yes, granted you might be able to find the same stories and information online somewhere but there is something to be said about the actual printed paper. The smell and texture of the paper, the way the ink rubs off. It is an art form!
The process in which it takes to get a paper printed is incredible it takes time and energy and it has been around for decades! It is something that links us to the past. It is not just about reading the information or stories. It is about the experience of picking up the newspaper and feeling the paper, turning the pages, knowing what it took to get you this copy. It is fascinating and something that I would love to be apart of someday!
