Print journalism is dying? Let’s blame the flu. Or whatever.

Newspapers spread the anti-America virus.

Trump Curse.

Isn’t this similar to what happened right at the beginning of the Great Depression. I remember hearing a story, that the non investment class noticed that papers were closing or merging. That was the first big sign on Main Street - People were in breadlines a few weeks later.

I don’t like the sound of that. People need butt wipe and there’s little to be found in the stores.

Problem is the Trib-Review is the conservative paper, while the Post-Gazette is MSM.

I don't see their services as essential ones, what with the
Downer Debbie articles over recent weeks.

“We don’t see the point of putting papers out that no one will see,” he said.

Why not? They put out papers that no one believed for years.

Every cloud has a newspaper dying. Or something like that, I forget the exact expression.

Want to end the "lockdown" ASAP? If you are a business owner, tell the media outlets where you advertise that you will be stopping your ad buys for "the foreseeable future."

If enough of you did that, the lockdown would end in a couple days and the story would then disappear from the headlines.

The media in this country only responds to existential threats to themselves.

I know I am putting the Weekend newspaper directly into the trash. And I cannot be the only one.

[Brilliant]

I hope they don’t expect a bailout.

[Sam Gamgee]

woo hoo! I notice that TV stations are playing ads for tourism and fast cars - things no one is buying right now. LOL. I love to hear about the death of mainstream journalism. Maybe my prayers will be answered and NBC will fold shop?

Trib Total Media used to publish a paper in Pittsburgh (Tribune-Review). It had a conservative opinion section and covered the local area much better than the Post-Gazette (which is leftist). Richard Mellon Scaife owned the Trib. I would not knee-jerk celebrate this development based on hatred of leftist-papers. These probably are not leftist.
