The Death of Newspapers

[Gaon]

As we do for our ABC, which many people want sold off, shut down or privatised.

It is unethical for the state to own a broadcasting company.

I thought the government of Stephen Harper would have sold CBC, but they didn't.

Governments don't have the spine to offload their public broadcaster, even though they are well past their use by date.



People in remote areas rely on our ABC for news and entertainment because private broadcasters don't make any profit from them.

Please dont tell me im the only one here who still reads real books with pages.



The place I live at does not get news papers anymore.  No one ever read them.  Many door had an old faded pile and others just use to sit on the stoop while the wind blew the papers everywhere, its terrible when it rains, the paper sticks to everything.  I never asked but I think the landlord cancelled the papers.  I never read them, but they came in handy for painting and other art projects.

I don't know about books, but e-readers are very common.

I hope they die too asap, they've caused enough trouble to many ppl just for the sake of attention whoring and manipulating the idiots out there.

But, how is that different from online news?

Not much tbh, though online news often accept reviews, opinions and criticism to iron their misleading facts out.  ac_cool

The only place I see newspapers is at my dentist's clinic.

The library still has them and they carry newspapers still from other countries.

Yes, I've seen that at the downtown branch of the library.

Check out the list of new books.



80% are written by women.



Fictional writing has become a woman's domain. Few and fewer men are authors, and even fewer read their books.



Likewise more and more television series and movies are targetting a female audience. Men have lost interest. Perhaps they are more immersed in technological forms of entertainment such as video games.
