The only time I ever touch a paper newspaper is if someone leaves a copy of the local on the table in a Dunkin when I’m in Maine. I subscribe to the Boston paper online (local to my primary residence) and a couple of national papers.
I would chuckle when my mother would ask if I saw the article on (subject).
What she was telling me about on Thursday she read on Wednesday and it happened on Tuesday. I read about it on Tuesday. It was old news to me.
When news just started being online (before tablets) I would print articles and take them to the bathroom. My (ex) wife just shook her head.
