Very long story by the Washington City Paper, worth the read, about the divide between digital and paper at The Washington Post.
Summary quote:
"It’s all about control—the news people and the Web people are grappling over who hires whom, who edits what, who pays for what, and who gets what first."
The story offers specifics, deep within, about technical and workflow barriers, particularly with photos.
There's no mention of the departure of technical whiz Adrian Holovaty from The Post, but you can read more about his thoughts on the divide via the long tail of the web here. Holovaty himself showed class in his departure announcement.
