Print newspapers across the country are looking death in the eye. Some will close completely, like The Rocky Mountain News, while others will cease printing hard copies and publish only online versions, like The Christian Science Monitor.
Whichever way it goes, print newspapers are an endangered species. Like dinosaurs of old, they cannot adapt quickly enough to the Internet and the digital climate change it has brought to their world.
Time magazine has an article entitled "The 10 Most Endangered Newspapers in America" in this week's issue. See if your local newspaper is one of those predicted to cease publication in the next 18 months.

One can only hope that The Orlando Slantinel will be one of the doomed. Although not until I have moved residences because it does make good cusioning and filler when packing moving boxes. Oh, and I do enjoy the Sunday crossword.
