Some of us still pick up a newspaper

The danger is that sometimes those of us who inhabit the media/social media/journalism/technological sector forget sometimes that not everyone lives the way that we do.

Hence I was interested to read this piece from Ryan Chittum at CJR WHO writes

For those of us of a certain small-but-growing subset— the blogging, commenting, techno-savvy, early-adopting, extreme-news consumers, it’s sometimes easy to forget that most people don’t live like we do. They don’t use RSS. They don’t Twitter. They don’t read twenty blogs a day. They (some 100 million or so) still actually pick up the newspaper and read it.


My problem is that I do all those things and still pick up a newspaper and a magazine and listen to the radio news.Quite what that says about me I don't know
