News has been the staple of the print business for centuries...a far cry from the first print press. Since the world-wide-web came to life, the dead knell of the newspaper industry was more or less announced.
Topix and Bing, and other search engines were first to mark their territory and carve out a share...and soon they stepped into news aggregation, an all natural 'next-step' inside their development.
Today, one will not need to spend a minute flicking through a newspaper, since the news in on the web as well as just a finger click away.
Some services nonetheless provide audio news!
Such has been the story across the world that certain wonders why it has taken so miss the world to latch on to the new trend press wire. Never the less, this indicates in a couple of years, or decades, particularly because of the 'save the forest' campaigns all around the planet, print press may be retired to the annals of history....fodder for historians and scholars...but not much more.
In its place, a much simpler, quicker, simpler, and more accessible and free system of consumption: online newspapers!
The long run is not totally grim notwithstanding this, as print industry leaders start the ball rolling to comprehend the significance of web-based presence for their brands. As they adopt more aggressive online marketing, pr and advertising approaches they will adapt with the new trends and hopefully, carve out a fresh model for their flagships.
That said, it won't be described as a monopoly on information ever again. What with the bloggers and citizen reporting taking root. The Iran elections to the fore a modern phenomenon...citizen contribution in journalism, or simply speaking citizen journalism. Iranians send images and videos throughout the worldwide web and gave access to millions who wanted to know what was happening in the 'now'...something the print media would 've got round to after editors and journalist had polished off their articles, edited out any unfriendly footage and doctored a number of the material to put across 'the right message' ;.
The current presence of bloggers also complicates things for the old style of doing things in the news industry. No further do people have to take what the editor and his sponsors want them to hear...no longer are people forced to attend, and no longer is the right to regulate information dissemination the sole privilege of ruling dictators and parties...anyone can be a newspaper, anyone can be a journalist, and anyone, can share his opinion.
