Future of Newspapers/Magazines

I believe that news websites are starting to erode newspapers and magazines। But, as newspapers and magazines struggle to survive, news websites are also having to figure out new ways to
generate advertising revenue and subscription revenue. Although, I am not sure as to whether news websites will completely replace magazines. Magazines are more specific in catering to particular hobbies or interests. There is also something about magazines- that they are used to allow their readers to experience or tactical enjoyment. If magazines didn’t survive, what would people do to help pass the time in waiting rooms?

  1. Hey Mark, great blog! I especially love the last sentence. While it's humorous, it ties your entire point together. In my opinion, magazines won't die. They're too much fun. I guess with the economy though, people are having to watch their dollars more. So for a girl, it's either "Cosmo" or dinner for that week?!
