If you haven’t read Newsweek’s seven-part series on the 2008 Election, do so now.
I rag on Newsweek and Time a lot, but sometimes they put out good stuff. I think we’ll see a transitionary period over the next few decades, where many newspapers – the Christian Science Monitor was the first notable – will cut back to weeklies in print and significantly expand their online coverage, and leave the daily press to the giants of the industry (the Times, the Post, etc). They’ll provide more in-depth and analytical coverage, and I think this is a very, very good thing.
Newsweek’s series can be found here:
Part 1: How He Did It
Part 2: Back From The Dead
Part 3: The Long Siege
Part 4: Going Into Battle
Part 5: Center Stage
Part 6: The Great Debates
Part 7: The Final Days
