I think it is inevitable that there will be a huge contraction in the years ahead. it is fairly certain I would think that KM will take over those titles mentioned..ie the Dover Express among them. So that will lead to a contraction here in Dover. KM unlikely to keep two titles going.
But where will it all end. Websites static and on the go are clearly the coming media, but the solution has not as yet been found as to how to make them pay ( with the exception of the huge ones at the top of the pile of course).
Take the link above..thats a paid story written by a paid journalist. He gets a wage. Those links would disappear if newspapers disappeared because all the web is free, who would pay the journalist to write the story in the first place?
Our good friend Mr Murdoch has taken a stand and charged for some of his websites, the Times I believe being one, but traffic has slumped as a result. So not ideal, but somewhere along the line some things will just have to be paid for.
