So what are you: paper, web, or other?

Dabble in writing for the local paper and a Web site (totally unconnected to each other), but alas, my "real" job is elsewhere.
 
A paper 99.9 percent web and multimedia duties.

It's been that way for about a year now. In that span, I think I've written five stories for the print edition. The sad thing is, I got in this business because of the writing aspect. Not to code pages, and produce photo galleries.
 
Always been newspaper. Used to have to post the entire section on the Web after deadline every night, then they broke us into Content and Print.
I'm on the Print team, which means I'm probably doomed.
But at least when the nightly calls come in from the reporters complaining that their work on the Web site is messed up -- bad headline, no byline, dropped paragraphs, botched cutlines -- I can say what I've been told to say: Not my job.
