Newspapers Continue Slow Death

A report shows that more than half of the jobs at US newspapers have disappeared since 2001, with a large portion of the losses offset by employment gains at internet firms, government figures showed Monday.

The data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed US newspaper employment fell from 412,000 in January 2001 to 174,000 in September 2016. 

For you guys under thirty, a newspaper was an ancient method of delivering news via dead trees.
