Further proof that Marc Andreessen is wrong about the NY Times

A while ago noted Internet entrepreneur guru Marc Andreessen called for an official "death watch" of the NY Times, calling it an "obsolete, inconvenient product." I thought he wasn't giving the publication due credit for reinventing itself.
