norg
 n.— «“Norg” because we need to lose our old identity with one dying medium, newspapers, and stress our most valuable commodity, the one that we truly own, and that is news…without the paper. Thus, we must now be news organizations, or “norgs.”» —“The New Philadelphia Experiment: Saving the Daily News” by Will Bunch Attytood (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) Oct. 24, 2005.
