1981 primitive Internet report on KRON
Long before anyone had heard of the Internet, early home computer users could read their morning newspapers online … sort of. Steve Newman’s 1981 story was broadcast on KRON San Francisco.

Apparently Richard Halloran owns a home computer.

@blankbanz
internet is not for porn
Would you please to SUB me back?
now days the newspapers contain 4 paragraphs of text. With 30+ ads per article.
“All of our newspapers & magazines” nobody think of porn back then? hahaha
now those two newspapers in San Francisco are in significant financial trouble.

This internet thing will never catch on. Idiots.

Does anyone else love computers but hate the internet? Computers used to be
escapist toys for nerds now they are narcissus ponds for vapid socialites.
Cyberspace has really lost it’s soul. I think smart and or interesting people are going to have to launch a back to paper back to text mode bbs minitel hieroglyphics movement to regain their independence from the philistines. Maybe if i used braille Yiddish with carrier pigeons I could avoid imbibing the lameness of the present day.
reading news electronically? ABSURD! there aren’t enough tubes in the world!
Richard Halloran: Owns Home Computer
I’m glad it got more spiffy.
HTML 1 LOL

I’d love to believe this, but a lot of the internet is basically just a place for already cliched opinions to get expressed ad nauseum by people who think they’re expressing something new. This is especially true in politics, where, for example, the entire immigration debate is “We’re under invasion!” v. “We are a nation of immigrants.” Tell me something I haven’t heard already! As George Orwell would say (sarcastically) “the fascist octopus has sung its swan song.”

WOW
