Death of Newspapers

Paul Gillin has written an essay and started a blog on the death of newspapers:

"I've started a new blog, Newspaper Death Watch, to monitor and comment upon the disintegration of the American metropolitan daily newspaper industry. If you keep an eye on this blog, you know that I have strong opinions about this topic. I believe that the collapse of this American institution will be stunningly swift and broad, with perhaps no more than a dozen major metros surviving until 2030. There's more detail in this essay."


1. Why are newspapers popular?
2. How can newspapers deal with the threat of the internet?
3. What are the implications for 'freedom of speech'?
