Newspaper Lifespan (class response)

Mr.Miller was recently doing a lecture on newspapers and said that this was a news medium that would never die. I find this very hard to believe. The news websites online provide better and easier accessible news then a news paper. For example I was walking around school and heard about something that happened and immediately got on my phone to check wha it was, 5 articles popped up talking about what how and why it happened that were posted an hour after the incident. The newspaper would take a whole day. The idea of sharing a newspaper is easier online too. The article you are reading is one tweet, text, or pin away from all your friends seeing it. As for tradition, my dad reads all of his papers on his ipad. With one app he access news papers from all of the world and has them translated so that he can read whichever one he likes. Online news is the present and the future and newspapers are dying.
