back during the revolution, having two printing presses on an armored train was just the most advanced form of bringing propaganda to the people. if trotzky was around today, in today's media landscape, he'd definitely use the full range of different platforms and formats because that's what you need to do today if you want to build broad public support. i find it incredibly weird that some trot orgs stick so adamantly to the newspaper format, that just seems ahistoric and fetishistic to me.
