I can certainly think of a few local dailies (and not small ones either) here in Canada that couldn't really get much dumber. The nationals aren't too bad, but some of major local papers are really just getting tabloid. Speaking of which, I never really understand the 'let's interview a random person on the street to see what they think' approach to journalism. It just seems lazy to me. Great site by the way. This is my first visit, but I'll definitely be back. Keep up the good work. I think the concept of dumbing down newspapers really scares me.
