Death by Capitalism, obviously people are more informed these days and demand a better product from the media.

Funny thing, the new media seems to be doing quite well. :P

Everybody just reads online now. I'm not sure it's all ideological.

Probably not but I still subscribe to four conservative magazines and various technical journals. I quit reading the local newspaper many years ago after I subscribed to the the National Review and later the American Spectator. I really just lost interest in the paper and I was ticked off with it anyway.

Not true in my case.  I used to read USAtoday daily as well as the 'net news sites.  No longer.  Why should I support papers that I no longer respect or trust?
