Will newspapers die?

Even though investments have increased from 24% to at least 30% over the years, I keep hearing that newspapers are going to fail.  Yes, it seems apparent due to the effects of Internet and its plethora of knowledge.  My question to you is this. Are the sources you go to credible?   This is just something for you to think about.  Credibility is the reason newspapers have ceased to fail.  The fact is newspapers are as healthy as ever.  They didn't disappear when radio (1920's) and TV (1950's) threatened their existence.  Huge conglomerates now own several newspaper industries. Shouldn't this only secure newspapers as a powerful and convenient medium source, providing a financial backbone preventing bankruptcy if it happened to occur?  The problem about conglomerates, some say, is their influence on newspaper content.  Newspapers are the most credible form of media but what happens if this is changed?  Ads on the front page suggesting to eat at a particular restaurant as well as the rise of soft news and irrelevant articles, in my opinion, is what will eventually destroy credibility, thus killing off the newspaper.  People need the newspaper to inform the public about real and imperative issues.  Not about the latest pop-star on the rise.  The last thing we really need is the Hollywoodisation" of newspapers.  This will only taint the newspaper's reputation.  We need to protect our traditional medium even if we don't read it ourselves.  Let me know your opinions on this.  I would be happy to discuss it with you.
