"The newspaper business has been hearing rumors of its demise for generations. Seventy-five years ago, radio was the threat. Fifty years ago, it was television; 10 years ago, the Internet. Through it all, newspapers have not only survived but even today continue to demonstrate profit margins that are the envy of many other industries. "
Florida Sun-Sentinel.com, Jan 9, 2006.
"Newspapers used to have a monopoly on information, and it is taking them a long time to get used to the idea that they have lost it. A century ago, in every American city, various Heralds, Timeses, Tribunes and Gazettes may have competed with each other, but as a mass medium, the newspaper enjoyed total primacy.

Gray, former managing publisher of The Christian Science Monitor, who now runs a research project called Newspaper Next at the American Press Institute in Reston, Va. 'Today we've got an infinite pipe for information, but we're still putting out a medium that goes out once a day and meets the needs of 100 years ago.'"
