I’m not in USA but people here in my country really don’t read newspapers a lot anymore. 90% of newspapers are quite low-quality, so called “yellow press”. So really internet is a media of a greater quality. Most of newspapers are covering stuff like politics, economics, other stuff which seems more “clear” for the people reading them. But in fact, e.g. a seller of apples trying to argue with a postman about situation in Syria is quite much the same if they would discuss collision of black holes.
How do you measure the quality of internet and newspapers? How do you compare their impacts? What do you know about the postman’s knowledge of black holes?
In short I measure this the similar way as you measure which restaurant for you is good and which is bad.
Probably there exist postmans whos command of knowledge about black holes is very strong, but I believe an average postman knows quite little on topics like that.

How do you know that?
Could you clarify your question?
