Despite the excellent efforts of NRO (and other outlets, of course), the internet still lags behind print and television as a source of political news. Only 15% of respondents to a recent Pew poll reported getting most of their news from the Net. However, the market for news on the Net is growing rapidly; it more than doubled in the last 4 years. Film critic Jonathon Rosenbaum said last year that he is “often tempted to say that instead of Chicago, [he lives] on the Internet.” For more and more of us, I think, that’s true. (Except for Derb, who, as usual, is taking the contrarian path and attempting to spend less time on the computer.)
