Michael Lenehan of the Chicago Reader has this screed about the demise of newspapers. He blames Craigslist, Google, and (gasp) bloggers. He suggests journalists–real journalists–go on strike for a year to show all the news enthusiasts out there what they’d be missing. I would offer my own rebuttal and sophisticated analysis, but I am one of those lazy bloggers Lenehan despises. Besides, Ryan Rhodes dissects Lenehan’s whine better than I ever could.
