Not necessarily, I don't care if I read what happened at Tuesday night's town council meeting on Wednesday, Thursday, or even Friday. Not everything is the paper is breaking news, and much of it is interesting but you wouldn't go searching for it.
They don't take into account how a paper is used. On the bus or train, at work, can I borrow the movie listings section a minute, fold up the sports section and stick it in your back pocket on the way to the shithouse.
Not everyone sits at a desk with a computer all day. Those hand held thingys are neither comfortable nor practical to just scan while you eat your sandwich... tough on the eyes too.
