This has been in the works for a long time, I am sorry to say.

If I live another 20-25 years, I will be surprised if there are any real print newspapers left. I also expect to see all "news" disappear, whatever the media.

Newsgathering, like customer service, is expensive, and the bean counters don't like that. For example, one of the local TV stations spends nearly 15 minutes of every newscast gossiping about some celebrity or sports figure (s).

Real news is all but gone.

That worries me as how are we to have informed citizens without news?
