- Arpikarhu - 02-27-2002 News Media Calls It Quits New York City (AP)- Citing a lack of readership, the leaders of all the world's media outlets have decided to fold up shop. "We were doing fine and then all of a sudden everybody stopped reading newspapers and watching t.v. news. We had no choice", said New York Times publisher Arthur Salzburg minutes after the astounding announcement was made. Since the turn of the century, metropolitan newspapers and ,later, local t.v. stations have been the primary source of news for most americans. This all changed when Ikea Boy started his almost compulsive posting of news tidbits, copied and pasted from these very same news sources. "He's got us beat", said CNN's Ted Turner. "How can we compete with his resources?". A Harris poll of 3500 americans came back with almost unanimous results. They all agreed that without Ikea Boy , their knowledge of daily news would be almost non-existent.
