Newspaperman used in a sentence

Newspaperman in a sentence as a noun

High praise from another newspaperman, and well earned. Tangentially, Will is also a mathematician and programmer.

Does somebody have a link to the forward-thinking newspaperman whose thesis was that the newspaper business model was fundamentally that they had a regional monopoly on social permission to mail a bunch of ads direct to your doorstop in such a manner that you would actually read them? I saw it on HN first, I think, and it dovetails with this post very well.

The old newspaperman in me is terrified by folks coming out and posting really controversial stuff, the sort that destroys reputations, and probably without the protection of legal oversight. In days of yore such stuff would appear in the media only after having been looked at by lawyers and multiple points checked and necessary evidence and statements were gathered.
