That's considered a news story?
The reporter interviewed two customers at closing time at a Borders and added a few facts he probably found on the Web. My editor would have my head if I wrote a piece like that.
I did think this quote was interesting:
"It feels real, whereas (the reader) kind of separates you a little bit from the story," Farina said.
Several of my friends who work in publishing express the same sentiment. I'm not sure why paper is necessary to immerse oneself into a story. All I need is a good story well-told.
I'm glad the general press is running stories on e-book readers. I just wish they were better researched.
