It's too late for this particular medium. Who has time to read newspapers in the modern world, really? If everybody's getting their news from TV, and increasingly, from the Internet, who will bother to read all the glut of ads that pay for newspapers? Dead tree versions of information are on their way out.

I sincerely doubt that there will be any daily newspapers left by 2025, at least papers as we know them today.

Oh, I don't know about that. There is something missing sitting on the patio in the morning sipping your steaming cup of coffee and reading the laptop. Or sprawled out in bed on Sunday morning trying to share the laptop with your spouse because he wants to read the sports section and you want to read the editorials.

Frankly, I miss that, but I don't miss it enough to read the crap they print today.

Besides, if we won't read their tripe on newsprint, what makes them think we'll read their tripe on-line?
