Because the nation has decided to celebrate the millennium in 2000. When the millennium starts is a matter of calendar-keeping. When we celebrate it is a matter of spirit, and we will follow the spirit of the country on this. The partnership was formed to provide our readers and Channel 33's viewers with the best possible package of stories. Every story, particularly big stories, can be told in a number of ways.
Words are the most powerful way.
That's what we do best. We do that well, too. But some things are best told with sound and video. This partnership makes sure our message is presented in the best way. In addition, reprints of historic front pages will give readers a chance to see history as it happened.
