Want TV Listings? Do It Yourself, Times TellsReaders

By encinoman

The LA Times recently encouraged readers of the print edition to &;Print your own TV TImes with a simple click.  Go to latimes.com/tvtimes and print out a week of TV grids.&; Sounds just like the old TV Times magazine in the Sunday newspaper, that people like my mother, who&;s not on the Internet, still miss.  But as newspapers cut off their own fingers and toes in a twisted effort to survive, they push the printing of a week of TV programming onto the readers. But if I have to print out my own TV listings, why do I need to go to the Times website at all?
