KMartinHandyman Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Maybe they failed to spot a trend of all of their employees getting the news and all of their information from Facebook and Line on their smartphones at work all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nausea Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Guilty as charged, get all my news off the internet nowadays, rarely buy a newspaper. What's more worrying is that I'm starting to read books off the internet; makes my library rather redundant. There is still the odd book you won't find there though.
