Black and white and read all over

We live in a world dominated by electronic gadgets and gizmos that would make Dick Tacey's head spin. We can access the Internet from a cell phone while we talk to someone. We tweet messages, post video clips on public access websites, text our friends and post more information than we want anyone to know about us on a host of social networking sites. But, there is something iconic about someone just reading a newspaper.

Despite the fact that we can get minute-by-minute news updates via the web or television news 24/7, for some, there is a sense of comfort about a newpaper, regardless of how good or bad the news might be. Somehow, seeing it in print makes the news authentic and true.
