- If the Village Voice counts as mass media (and it does to those of us who
- spend a lot of time in the Center of the Known Universe, aka New York City),
- they'll probably be covering Internet-related issues a lot in the near future.
- In mid-December they replaced their "Tube" column with a double column feature
- collectively titled "Wired", which covers all aspects of electronic mass
- communications. They've got one columnist who deals with the technical aspects
- of the media, and another who explores the human interest angle. I haven't
- seen an article devoted specifically to the Internet yet, but it's the sort of
- thing which would be ripe for coverage by this sort of feature. Both columnists
- have Internet e-mail addresses, though I haven't got my latest copy of the
- Voice here to pass them on.
