Articles questioning the abandonment of printed maps and atlases seem easier to find in British media.  I think American newspapers are too reluctant to print anything that contradicts the messages of major advertisers.

All the google ads surrounding the above linked article in the Daily Mail are for GPSs.  Do those ad buyers know or care?  This is admittedly less extreme than seeing ads for airlines beside an article about a plane crash that happens to contain a key phrase like “Caribbean vacation.”  Still I wonder:  Does all that caution pay off if the papers get too boring?
