My recent post on graphics communication is supported by Farhad in reference to the print layout and design of Newspapers.  The author compares the Amazon Kindle and a print Newspaper.

But both versions of the Kindle are missing what makes print newspapers such a perfect delivery vehicle for news: graphic design. The Kindle presents news as a list—you’re given a list of sections (international, national, etc.) and, in each section, a list of headlines and a one-sentence capsule of each story.

This further support my passion for why the magazine is the perfect periodic print media channel.  News is too fluid to effectively be published daily in print.  But the summary of news and information is perfectly suited to the print magazine format.
