Busting some persistent myths
This 1978 educational film about newspapers helps to break several current myths. Are newspapers suffering because digital? Nope, they were already declining fast in '78. Has competition disappeared because digital? Nope, in '78 competition was already gone. 97% of cities had only one newspaper.
Newspapers ruined themselves. They didn't need any help from radio or movies or TV or internet. They NEVER served the alleged purpose of "holding power accountable". They ALWAYS worked exclusively for Deepstate in its various forms. They ALWAYS created crime and war.
A permanent crime syndicate, constantly ruining civilization and killing billions of people.
