The Newspapers violated the saying "Never Bite the Hand that Feeds You". Advertising is the engine that papers run on. Businesses wanted the advertising space in the papers but the papers started attacking Business cruelly. Business realized they were hurting themselves more than helping themselves by using the papers. The result was business abandoned the papers more and more. The financial underpinnings of the papers started eroding away.

The Papers responded by ripping business even more accelerating the vicious cycle and the final result is what we are seeing here.

The solution is pro-business Media that does not attack Business unless there is absolutely no defending what a business has done.

I'm sorry to say that the media will have to implode before it can realize its fiasco.

Exactly. And businesses started to discover that it was more effective to do direct advertising and in many cases advertising over the Internet.
