Let me explain.
Im 20 years old and would rather get my news off the internet I find that news in print is out of date by the time it reaches me so I only buy a newspaper to start the fire in the log burner.
On the other hand my parents enjoy reading the paper and will buy it for that reason.
However as my parents get older and die out who will bye a newspaper?
Will Newspapers stop printing and just post there news on the internet?
How will newspaper capture the younger reader?

I predict that newspapers will change more and more into daily magazines. I don't want my favourite newspaper to go bankrupt, because it is of an higher quality than the internet news. You just don't get 5 pages of international news, 3 pages of national news, 2 opinion, 3 economy and 3 art pages per day on the internet. I also wouldn't know where to find the weekly book review and science news, both at 7 pages each. I think that there will always be a need for quality newspapers, although they may become more and more electronic.

WOW...if that isn't the prediction of Fahrenheit:451 coming true before our very eyes, I just don't know what is.

Thanks Brandbury, too bad more people didn't pay attention.
