    Thete’s a quote from an Obama official that goes like “newspapers used to have foreign bureaus all over the world to get news on foreign affairs. Now they just ask us. The average international reporter is a 27 year old that knows nothing”.

    Y'know I remember years ago reading that print-newspaper was more or less dying as a medium because of intensely low profit margins, and I can't help but imagine that that's a big contributor to this.
