A new research paper seeks to answer a riddle for publishers, editors and even readers: when does new news become old news? In the case of a news article on the Internet, the answer is surprisingly long: 36 hours on average, according to the paper, ''The Dynamics of Information Access on the Web,'' which appeared in the June issue of Physical Review E, the journal of the American Physical Society.

Wendy P. McCaw, the reclusive multimillionaire owner of The Santa Barbara News-Press, is at war with her own staff. What started as a conflict over journalistic ethics has in the past week escalated into a full-blown rebellion. Staffers have been marching out the door, accusing her of interfering with their editorial independence. When she published her explanation of the departures as an expression of bias in the reporting staff on Thursday, even more quit. On Friday, her staff -- or what remained of it -- held a rally outside the newspaper building, where some 30 reporters and editors, dressed in black, put duct tape over their mouths, to represent the owner's gag order issued last week.

MINNEAPOLIS is just the kind of place that Katie Couric had in mind when she decided to go on a six-city ''listening tour'' to build anticipation for her fall debut on the ''CBS Evening News.'' A well-read place with a virulent streak of civic-mindedness, Minneapolis is one of those middle places where news is discussed, consumed and analyzed. And, although Ms. Couric had never previously found a reason to visit, Minneapolis is a splendid place to live if you disregard that six months a year you need to wear a spacesuit against the cold. She even made a pilgrimage to the statue of Mary Richards, the hat-throwing newswoman played by Mary Tyler Moore -- the implication being that Ms. Couric is ''going to make it after all.''
