Like the buggy whip, steam engines and large radial aircraft engines, technology has made print news media's business model obsolete.

Remember, the purpose of any newspaper or magazine is to make money for the people who own the newspaper or magazine. Forget all the altruistic “truth, justice and the American way” BS. Media is about money. No readers, no reward.

It's the BUSINESS MODEL that is dead. No one is going to spend $ to cut down trees using gas powered chainsaws, spoil the landscape, drive the mods to the pulp mill, pollute everything in sight making paper (and create a horrible stench,) then drive the blank paper to a plant where they will put carcinogous ink on it, then drive it to your house, just so you can get a 6 hour to 6 day old far-left liberals' views of the world.

It's over.

It's not just that the fat Lady is getting ready to sing. She has sung, retired, and moved to St. Petersburg, where she plays canasta and shuffleboard, and lives with the long ceased-publication St. Petersburg Evening Independent.

LOL! There are a LOT of union employees lurking in or near that sentence.
