nathanjurgenson added,
@nathanjurgenson @zeynep love this. the more I hear stories about newspapers' pasts, the more I discover old strategies become new again.

@mattdpearce @zeynep it's what this book is about http://www.amazon.com/Chaos-Disciplines-Andrew-Abbott/dp/0226001016 … except about soc sci not newspapers
