NEW YORK (AdAge.com) — Digital properties may be VC darlings, hot on Wall Street and coveted by advertisers.

And while they read the online versions of their local papers, they also subscribe to Rocky Mountain News and several magazines — Reader’s Digest and women’s mags for Jean, financial and sports rags for Dave. They catch the morning news and never miss their favorite prime-time TV shows. And they’ve never logged on to watch online video.
