In a nutshell: "Internet-based news is trumping both television news and the daily newspaper as a mode of classroom instruction." The rest lies in how you portray it; one person's "threat" is another person's "liberation". Also interesting to note: "NIE (Newspaper In Education) program directors are only vaguely aware of the Internet's inroads on newspaper use in the classroom." Note to research authors: this survey consisted of 1,262 respondents, not 5. That's why they get a sampling error of 2.7 percent, not, say, a zillion. Via Cyberjournalist.net.
