By 1980 the U.S. was helpless in Iran and the Soviets were all over
Afghanistan. Our defense build-up was underway and the media pundits were
weary of 1970s revelations. New Times apparently realized that truth no
longer attracted advertising, and preferred to fold rather than trim their
budget. Other magazines such as Penthouse and Playboy, which frequently ran
serious investigative pieces during the 1970s, also began having second
thoughts. (If you don't think this is a loss, then tune in the "information
superhighway" of the future, with its 500 cable TV channels. It sounds nice
until you realize that today's "infotainment" content will likely be diluted
by a corresponding factor, turning our critical capacity into instant mush.)
