At about the 27:00 minute mark they start talking about the New York Times. Andreessen does not like the Grey Lady. His advice: kill the print edition. After some prodding by Rose, he declares, "Yes, stop the presses right now."

This reduction is the by-product of horizontal expansion of the print media as mentioned by Mr. Young.

It was funny, but I think in suggesting the death of print media, you wield too broad a brush. Although I would agree that readership of physical newspapers is down (and not likely to recover), the reduction in the cost of creating print media has led to some reasonable growth in particular areas -- particularly niche magazines, and, of course, celebrity gossip. zOMG! Britney's boobs! In any case, both the Simpsons' episode and your mention of a dying print media reminded me of another blog post I read recently. It was written by a VC from New York and referenced a report by Goldman Sachs talking about the future of media in general. http://avc.blogs.com/a_vc/2008/01/what-my-kids-te.html I saw that episode, too.
