To Think They’ve Been Listening All These Years

webpubMajor newspaper publishers (the real ones who still use paper), have been found to be holding very secretive talks with each other to find a way of salvaging their aging empires that used to rule the world of news and current affairs. The only problem is that like the many online publishers they can’t seem to make up their mind or at least agree on some points. The rule of the newsprint may be numbered and with good reason, the world is getting hotter by the day with the advent of global warming due to deforestation for the use of these printing giants. Book publishers have gone ahead and jumped onto the online publishing bandwagon but will the thousands of newspapers find the heart to consider going online? They may have no choice for the odds are against them for more and more people rely on the internet for their news leaving them high and dry. They’d better make up their minds fast for the internet won’t be waiting for them.
