FishbowlNY - Turning the Page For New York Media
Monday, Dec 19

Remains of the Day

  • Simon Dumenco does not have high hopes for a Googlish new world: And also, he's impatient with PowerGeezers Rupert Murdoch and Sumner Redstone. It doesn't look good: two instances of "death" (network news, newspapers) and three attacks (iPod, Google and Viacom - see PowerGeezer above). Upside: At least NYT scourge Judy Miller has left the Times! Things should be okay from here on in! Oh, wait... [AdAge]

  • President Temaru thinks the NYT spying story is an eyebrow raise, too: In far-flung Tahiti, Arianna hops online and chimes in on the latest Times flap. She is not as optimistic as the New York folk; she think the paper is in trouble, and that it flubbed it badly by bowing to the National Security demurrals of the Bush administration. Honestly, 'beleaguered' doesn't begin to cover it over there. [HuffPo]

  • Cracking from the top: NYT Carpetbagger David Carr on the crisis at Time: "Two industry leaders I talked to - they did not want to comment on the record for fear of being seen as taking advantage of the misfortune of others - all used the same word: Scary." Uh, yeah. [NYT]

  • Skype at Swarthmore: Baghdad, ho! I don't know about flat, Thomas Friedman, but the world sure as heck is getting smaller. The New Yorker brings us the tale of some Swarthmore students who have been getting the grassroots story from Baghdad with an on-line phone book and a little help from Skype. Kind of amazing. And hopeful, especially in the face of the three items above. [NYer]
