The items in the daily press are totally
discontinuous and totally unconnected. The only
unifying feature of the press is the dateline.
Through that dateline the reader must go, as Alice
went, “through the looking glass.” If it is not
today’s line, he is involved in a world of items which
he, the reader of a detective story, makes a plot.
Marshall McLuhan and Harley Parker, Through the
Vanishing Point: Space in Poetry and Painting , (New
York, 1968), p. 251.
