Don Graham: Some stories told better online

"This year for the first time I have come to believe that we will be able to tell you about certain subjects better on the Internet than we will be able to in print," Washington Post chairman Don Graham said. "The Post newspapers have told you a tremendous amount about the guy. An editor named Fred Barbash . . . has started what I suppose you would call a blog called the 'Campaign for the Supreme Court' on washingtonpost.com, and Fred incorporates all of [the print edition's] stories about Alito, but he also makes available all the opinions Alito has written, all those documents that he wrote back in the Reagan-era Justice Department.

"So if you want to know everything about Alito . . . you can literally learn everything that is on the public record. That is something a printed newspaper cannot do. Even though some people like to say we write at great length in the Washington Post, we don't write at that great length."
