Apparently the rumor going around the Sioux Falls Argus Leader is that unless they get things turned around, the Argus will be a passed paper by the end of the year.
Who will we bloggers be able to mock and ridicule if this sad day comes? Busting KDLT's small balls just isn't the same fun.
And as my wife said this weekend as she picked up the new, slimmer, less content-ladened Argus, "What is this, a high school newspaper?!"
Indeed.

I like to see the printed page, but the ARGUS has gotten more and more worthless with every Gannet kind of improvement. I'm sure there is a market for celebrity trash, TV soap opera reviews, pages of mindless sports dribble, etc. but is that what the people most likely to buy newspapers are looking for?
Newspapers better get together and put together an electronic ink display sized like a newspaper for a low price. A few million of them could save a lot of newspapers and an awful lot of tree pulp.
PC MAGAZINE went to only digital issues in the US. I don't like it that way on a TV screen. I don't think I would care much for reading the ARGUS in a mediocre digital form either.
I hate reading papers and magazines online, I think they are too hard to read that way. Maybe part of the problem with the Argus is the stupid content that they have added and the fact that in the past year the price has been increased either two or three times, I can't remember which it is.
