    Computers at the breakfast table?! BLASHPHEMY!

    Love this reply from Henry Blodget of Business Insider to Bloomberg’s David Pauly… the latest bemoner of the death of newspapers.

    Pauly: “My wife Jeannie and I buy three newspapers Monday through Friday and two on Saturday and Sunday. What would we do during and after breakfast without them? Don’t tell me that we’ll have our computers propped open on the kitchen table to read news on Web sites.”

    Blodget: “Yes, you will.  And what’s wrong with that?  We’re doing it in our house now, and it’s not much different.  It’s much cleaner, more efficient, and less wasteful.  The table is less of a mess.  Also, we can each read bits of 5-10 papers now, not just one.”
