New York Times executive editor Bill Keller, of the
arrogant-all-the-way-to-death's-door newspaper industry,
takes a shot at the new media that is keeping his business
almost still relevant:
Keller said he had little use for Web sites like Google and
Drudge Report: "If you're inclined to trust Google as your
source for news -- Google yourself."
The Times uses Drudge on an almost-daily basis to leak
their top stories for the following day. He ought to be bowing
down and thanking him profusely for driving readership up. As for
Google, maybe they ought to put a block on all Times
stories in their news aggregator mechanism.
Clueless...
