Printed news makes my day.

Lo and behold. The New York Times has come to Italy. Every Monday. As an insert in the liberal Italian newspaper, La Repubblica. Yes, a compact English language New York Times. That’s an innovation. Coming to Italy this way. Of course, I’m able to plug into the Times daily. On the Internet. But it’s nice to occasionally see the printed version. When I’m back in Minnesota, I get the Times. Home-delivered. Daily. Because I like to take the newspaper with me. To bed. And when I go out to breakfast some mornings. It’s a luxury. I’m addicted to the printed word. To printed news. With an objective or liberal slant. Makes my day. –Jim Broede
