Welcome back to Let's Play The Blame Game: Celebrity Edition! Earlier this week, Bon Jovi
claimed Steve Jobs killed the music business; now Bob Woodward says Eric Schmidt snuffed out newspapers. The Washington Post journalist, made famous by uncovering and breaking the Watergate scandal,
told the Poynter Institute that the tombstone of Google's
soon-to-be-former CEO should read "I killed newspapers." Newspapers are dead?! Clearly, he hasn't seen
this.

@Thomas Houston it... it might be... it's a very large postcard and it knows the goings-on of the world... almost like it were "paper" with "news" on it... but that simply can't be, they've been killed! Bob Woodward says so!

If by killed you mean made more widely accessible, then sure. Google killed it good!
