Many quit tuning into the news or buying newspapers and magazines long before Trump came to the party.

If eyeballs, and hence advertisement rates, decline, there's going to be a lot of screeching and blaming.

The last time I purchase a newspaper or something like Time or Newsweek was nearly two decades ago.

Well...now that I think of that, it isn’t absolutely true. I did purchase a copy of the Boston Globe in recent memory because I needed the news copy for cleaning windows (using newspaper and vinegar) is the best way to clean streak-free. Well, I stopped doing even that.

The quality of paper has gotten so low that wiping the vinegar off causes the paper to turn to mush in your hand...so it isn’t even good for that anymore.
