The Sporting Blog Dan Levy reports on
Frank Deford's death-of-newspapers segment on "Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel," and pulls this Deford quote:
"No one knows the difficulties newspapers face better than I. When I was the editor of the National Sports Daily, we had a fine product, but we lost $150 million in only 18 months. It costs money to find and follow news. It costs money to print and deliver newspapers. And it's even more difficult now." || Related letter.
