"Granted, blogging, Twitter, YouTube videos and other online tools of citizen reporting can help to fill the gap – but they’re not (at least, not yet) a complete substitute for a seasoned reporter with regional expertise." Excellent point. It's key to maintain a healthy balance, which is difficult when the capital needs of one are so much greater than those of the other.

Every time I submit my travel column, I send it off with good wishes that the newspaper will remain in production. I love the internet, but there's something special about reading the daily newspaper. Long may they live!

As print media goes down the tube, sites like Matador will become all the more important. Thanks for the article Eva.
