You can find his Q&A on the New York Times here. You guys are a smart audience – I suggest you submit some questions and see if he takes any of them. Just e-mail askthetimes@nytimes.com. He’s not ducking the hard ones:
Q. How much longer can actual newspapers survive? I know the question has been asked over and over (TV was going to kill newspapers; USA Today was going to kill newspapers) but now it seems serious. People under 40 don’t seem to have the same relationship with the tactile experience of holding a newspaper in their hands. How will you keep this medium relevant, or failing that, continue to provide a medium that “comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable”?
I’m sending mine on the way today. Last day for answers is Februrary 6th.
