I admit to learning how to read—better,
if not completely—thanks to newspaper comics strips. Ditto the sports’ pages. Well, those days are long gone. The comics are shrinking to the point of
invisibility. Ditto the sports’ section.
Today’s hardcopy Tribune couldn’t
be bothered with scores from last night’s Cubs’ and White Sox games, though
ex-Cubs’ pitcher Jake Arrieta did get a nice picture that took up half of the
front page in sports. The White Sox got
a picture, too, inside, on page three.
That’s all they got, along with directions on how to find more online.
If you went online, you could find
the box score and an AP story. Really,
why do they bother?
