Major newspaper going online-only in 2007

Scott Karp said a major publication would go online only in 2007. Wired said a newspaper would stop publishing in print in 2007.

I was skeptical. Jeff Javis backed me up.

Jeff and I were wrong. The Weekly World News is going online only.

International Bat Boy coverage will never be the same.

Scott Karp:

Ah, vindication

Lucas:

Having never ever read the Weekly World News, I'm not all that broken up over it.

Sadly, two real newspapers are closing up shop, not even keeping a Web site ticking.

Temple Stark:

Um, yeah, newspaper isn't the word for the Weekly World News. It's an Alien baby abduted my lesbian tabloid.
