I wouldn't put both in the same category. Newspapers are reporting what happened yesterday. The internet tells you what happened in the past 5 minutes. I read my local daily and most of what I read I already read on the internet the day before. Craigslist is killing newspaper want ad revenue. I'm a typical buyer/seller and I now only use Craigslist. I haven't taken out a newspaper ad in many years now.
Magazines on the other hand do in depth reporting of current events and trends. Newspaper articles are very short. Do you think a newspaper would every do performance comparison between the 2010 Camaro and 2010 Dodge Challenger? Now if it's "porn" magazines you are talking about, I would have to agree. With the internet, who in the right mind would PAY for porn?
