The future of newspapers

The article states that by 2043 the newspaper will die in North America. That could be due to the fact that the younger generation spends 30% less time on traditional media once they start using the internet, and since the internet is constantly developing and improving it's a matter of time before everyone turns to digital media ditching the outdated newspapers. I agree with the statement that it's 'a cause for concern, but not for panic’ because right now there are a couple newspapers that are rising in circulation due to the changes that were made in order to maintain/increase their circulations. That being said, majority of papers are on a massive decline and right now this is supporting the idea that newspapers will die out very soon. In conclusion I believe that the newspaper will stay however it will require a lot of innovation and experimenting with new digital media as well so there can be synergy between the two different media texts.
