The Newsline is now on line and people also get it on their smart phones and
their VR streams and NLS players. I look online at the New York Times Book
Review on Sundays because it's the fastest way for me to discover if any of my
favorite authors have written new books. I also, very occasionally, look at an
article in Newsday, our Long Island paper, if I receive a headline in my inbox
because the articles are easier to access online from Newsline than directly
from Newsday. But the online content also omits all sorts of things and isn't
dependable.

It's the sort of thing Kenneth Jernigan would have done. I am totally out of
touch with the NFB's leadership, which is just fine with me.
And I never needed the Newsline because I get more than I can read on-line.
The idea of having to dial up my morning news was never something I could adapt
to.

Well, their timing is just perfect. Newsline has added a new
publication, Globes Israel, to Newsline. This is what they say.
We have added Globes Israel to our international publications. Each
evening, Globes brings its unrivaled coverage of Israeli business to
some 45,000 subscribers representing Israel's elite in management,
investment, technology, law, accounting, and marketing. From the
wealth of material in Globes, the English website team selects for
translation the news and features that will matter most to English
speaking readers.
Isn't that lovely? It's akin to giving blind people in the 1930's, a
braille magazine covering nazi news and business.
