The CSS one was even harder … I bet in the real world if I were told which effect to achieve, I'd know which CSS attribute to use, but it's hard to spout them all off from the top of your head.

You can't make money from reporting the truth because its just too boring and everyday - which is precisly why local newspapers suck and have always sucked. What you are talking about is media, propaganda and advertising. If there is a nostalgia it is for the time when people believed and had faith in objectivity and unbiased reporting - those days are long gone. We don't have NEWS today we have an unending stream of trivialities and opinions. There should be no business model in the news.
