How has the American media changed post-9/11? "The Paper" takes an in-depth look at the challenges of modern journalism as faced by the staff of a university newspaper embroiled in controversy. Following a year in the life of Pennsylvania State University's campus newspaper, this documentary features a group of journalism students confronting the pressures and problems inherent in today's media: declining circulation, barriers to investigative reporting and the responsibility of newspapers to the communities they serve. 2007 South By Southwest Film Festival Documentary Competition.
