I would pay the normal price for the paper, as I would today.
We have other free media sources, television, the radio, and online. Papers were making money when free was super big.
The problem, they don't report REAL news and when they do, I can't have it NOW.
Think of it like this... Something BIG goes down, plane crashes into a river. Someone posts on GFY, holy shit... blah blah blah. You open CNN, MSNBC, and Google News.. nothing, refresh an hour later, nothing, 3 hours later.. finally google news has it.
However, Twitter and like 1000 blogs posted the news seconds after it happened. CNN missed out.. the money to be made is gone, the burst is over.
Or Obama does something, whatever.. CNN likes it, Fox bashes it, MSNBC has a group meeting over it.. and the local paper reports what CNN wrote, but gave it an new title.
