Nairn... you're now discussing two different things...
Getting News... and saving a 'section' of a business that allows folks to get that News...
I don't disagree w/you at all on your assessment of TV media and I even approve of your use of the word 'Aphorism' as it's both appropriate and fun to say...
... but my point is that Newspapers aren't our only means of Journalism / News... there's the web... talk radio... etc - hate on some of it if you like... but at the end of the day - you can't FORCE people to read what you feel is 'good reading'...
... now... getting back to what I was speaking about above - giving newspapers tax exempt status will -not- make people want to read newspapers... thus it's a rather dumb... useless idea.
The old saying 'you can lead a horse to water... blah blah... ' comes to mind.
