“We understand that the newspaper is not the focal point of city life as it was 10 years ago. Once upon a time, people had to read the paper to find out what was going on in theater. Today there are hundreds of forums and sites with that information. But the paper can integrate material from bloggers and external writers. We need to be part of that community and to have dialogue with the online world.”
— NYTimes Chairman Arthurs Sulzberger, Jr, quoted at the World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland, in Israeli newspaper site Haaretz.com, explaining how the Times sees themselves as “curators of news.”
