You want to see this difference in attitude (between Reuters and the AP) in action? Go look at their Web sites. The AP's homepage doesn't even link to any stories; I see four headlines on the right sidebar, but they lead to "hosted" sites that I'm apparently "forbidden" from accessing. Reuters' site, on the other hand, has not only a clean layout but easily accessible links organized by category--and, in the case of business, by TYPE of business.
Adapting to change is hard; getting stuck on the outside looking in when you refused to adapt is harder.

Welp, when we get our planned global economy, the only decisions will be how to select the "commercial" bloggers and journalists and how to apportion them to their beats.

Wait, did I just read about someone in the news industry that didn't sound like a raving lunatic? I'm confused. I thought the crazies hung and shot anyone that made sense.

@senatormayer: He's smart enough to realize that you can monetize any situation. Didn't Paul Johnson write a book about how those who protect their today money risk only having today money?
