  • Will Newspapers go away one day?

    Reading Time: 2 minutes

    I remember a few years ago Warren expressed his dismal view on Newspapers future (in his annual shareholder letter). A few days ago Redstone (the controlling shareholder of CBS and Viacom) said something similar in an interview.

    “The reason we have not gone to newspapers is because its a slow growth industry and I think they are dying. I’m not sure there will be newspapers in 10 years. I read newspapers every day. I even read Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal.”

    I am a newspaper reader. I subcribed to Barrons and WSJ (paper format). Both my wife and I preferred the paper format, because we can mark on it, and it seems to me I think more when read something on paper (vs. computer). Lately I am seeing some interesting phenomena: the WSJ gets thinner and thinner; sometimes I did not receive the paper.
