  Another thing also overlooked in this discussion is how badly the finances of so many publications got fucked up. So many papers were bought up as investments in the last decade or so, and usually bought with lots of leverage. As the model started to dry up, because these were seen as investment vehicles, things were cut to save the bottom line and not necessarily serve the interest of informing the public. Newspapers are a victim of the current financial/leverage mindset as any other industry at the moment.
