tell it like it is Denny

"Should I tell my college j-students today that the Mighty Media Corporations that own the newspapers they will work for don't worry about journalism but rather fear company stock prices that go down instead of up? ...Should I teach them how disheartening it became for me at the end? Or should I teach them about, as a friend recently said, 'the Great Mission and Moral Imperative' of the newspaper culture?" [from the invaluable Romenesko]
