Ken Ficara erläutert bei cyberjournalist.net die Top 10 Gründe, warum es sich lohnt eine Zeitung zu lesen:

1. My newspaper has never crashed, gone down, or flashed animated ads at me.

2. Anywhere I travel, my newspaper goes with me. I don't need a laptop or
a wireless connection or a PDA.

3. I can read my newspaper while standing, while eating, while riding a
bus, but not while driving my car, which is just as well since I should be
paying attention to the road.

4. If I read a story I like, I can tear it out and save it, and not have
to pay to read it 30 days later.

5. I don't have to sign in or customize or register or remember passwords
to read my newspaper. And I often enjoy articles in my newspaper on topics
I wouldn't normally think I'd be interested in.
