Decline of Hotline

Ξ August 17th, 2010 | → Comments Off | ∇ Politics |

Last month, Politico posted about the decline of Hotline, the political newswire.  I’d heard about Hotline a while ago, when Rush Limbaugh touted it as the cutting edge of political information.  He was right at the time – in the infancy of the web, Hotline gave timely, daily political synopsis via fax.  I wondered how I could access to it, but at $15,000, it was a little bit beyond the means of my allowance.

But the advance of technology that put Hotline in such demand also signaled it’s decline.  Now, up to the minute news from Washington can be had from dozens of websites.  Still would like a subscription to it.

“The majority of the senior class of Vassar does not desire my company and I must confess, having read specimens of their thought and sentiments, that I do not desire the company of the majority of the senior class of Vassar.”
