News Hot Off the Screen!


Heard recently that several newspaper organizations will cease production of their paper version of the newspaper. And these are large newspaper organizations throwing in the towel which is the most shocking. However, this industry change is inevitable. With the focus on "green" business models coupled with the fact that by the time you get the newspaper unfolded to read, the news is what you've already read about online... the day before! I haven't subscribed to a newspaper in quite some time now. Got tired of seeing the local college football team get primary focus, no matter what news event happened in the country. If it doesn't affect or promote the local college football team, it just doesn't get put in our local newspaper. Quite sad to have a real world newspaper budget but they act like a student run newspaper. But I digress. Technology has a way of changing everything and newspapers are finally succumbing to the rush of technology, has happened with televisions, radio, automobiles, just about everything if you think about it.
