The Death Of The Newspaper?


Everyone was shocked in Chicago back in 1978 when the Chicago Daily News went out of business after 102 years in operation.   Television news killed off the evening newspapers, and now it appears the internet is killing off the rest of the papers, one by one.  You have to wonder how long newspapers like the Denver Post can survive.  On the other hand, there are a lot of positives with the internet, one of them being that I was able to download a press pass, which I modified to appear to be from the late lamented Chicago Daily News.  Hopefully I can use it to gain entry to the presidential debates next year, or at least the Press Box of the Colorado Rockies.  With change comes opportunity, after all.
