A bit of fun at the Telegraph

Shane Richmond asked me to do an imagined post from 2020 on his Telegraph blog, and here it is:

The last professional journalist retired in 2017, following the completion of the Library of Congress YakYak project, which enabled the semantic tagging of every utterance by every public official in the United States and Europe. The Great Newspaper Crash of 2010 led to mass redundancies amongst journalists, with many of them forced to follow the path trodden by rock musicians in the previous decade - live performance.

Just a bit of fun, you understand....
