NY Times: 'New Media': Ready for the Dustbin of History?
The companies that spent hugely on the "digital convergence" of media and Internet-era computing, AOL Time Warner and Vivendi Universal, which bought Mr. Diller's media properties, are in turmoil.

JD Lasica: The Times' clueless jab at new media.
It's true that the yelping of pundits who predicted that the digital revolutioin would doom the book publishing business or create fundamental changes in the movie or publishing industries overnight was off-base from the start, and if Lohr had confined his thesis to that subject, he might have been on target.
