Or they could cut the bias.

You know, it’s easy to say that the media have done this to themselves by presenting a universally liberal viewpoint, but the fact is that half the people in this country vote Democrat, and if even a quarter of these liberal voters bought newspapers, the papers would prosper. And they don’t.

Also, the experiment of the Washington Times shows that a conservative viewpoint does not prosper any better than the liberal ones do. This is a sound conservative newspaper full of articles by the best columnists and writers. But it’s not economically viable either: few people buy the physical paper.

I live in a prosperous upscale community full of educated people who like to read, and our town’s Borders is closing.

No, the age of print media is over.
