I think it is extremely sad how much the newspaper industry has gone down through the years. I can however say that I believe it makes sense because in our day and age virtually everything can be done online. It only makes sense that people are beginning to soley read articles online or watch the news instead of buying a newspaper to read. It is also sad that finding a job in the newspaper industry would be near to impossible for college students since newspapers are going out of business and/or positions are being cut.
