 If the Village Voice counts as mass media (and it does to those of us who
spend a lot of time in the Center of the Known Universe, aka New York City),
they'll probably be covering Internet-related issues a lot in the near future.
In mid-December they replaced their "Tube" column with a double column feature
collectively titled "Wired", which covers all aspects of electronic mass
communications. They've got one columnist who deals with the technical aspects
of the media, and another who explores the human interest angle. I haven't 
seen an article devoted specifically to the Internet yet, but it's the sort of
thing which would be ripe for coverage by this sort of feature. Both columnists
have Internet e-mail addresses, though I haven't got my latest copy of the 
Voice here to pass them on.
