[color=#990000][/color] I read the comments trailing this post and I discovered, you are in all places defending your territory. If your building is built on a solid foundation, no need to defend it this fiercely.

I mentioned that in the US and UK , newspapers are very much in vogue. Why not do a little research? Washington post, New York times, the enquirer are newspapers doing fantastically well. Have I mentioned Herald? I studied mass communication to a post graduate level, am offering you an explanation from a well informed angle and you have stuck to your sentimental lens choosing to see things myopically, holding tenaciously to the infantile view of your daddy who now prefers his phone to hard copies. I make bold to say that the economic situation of Nigeria has dwindled the sale of newspapers. People no longer want to buy not because they don't but because their monthly stipend no longer afford them that luxury. The archival advantage of hard copy dwarfs any archival one hold by the internet. The Internet is commonly used by young people who in time memorial never buy newspaper. The advent of the internet only gave this a claim. Interestingly, fewer young people read news/long text on the internet. They do all other things including gaming. That's why news platforms are already planning to include gaming in their contents so as to attract young people followership. These are all based on research. Go online, do fact finding before giving people trash to devour.

...this is the last time i will be replying ur mention



last time i check.... newspapers is sold for just 200naira.... i could buy hundred at a go and economy isn't that bad that people can't afford 200 to buy newspapers... are people not buying datas?....

I want to believe you didn't do your research very well before putting up this stuff about journalism. I was going to quickly take you through McLuhan's assertions but it will only compound your confusion and your shallow knowledge on the subject matter. Now, here are some few reasons I have for you.
1. Before the advent of newspaper, information were written and posted for public consumption and when newspaper came, it has remained unsuppressible. Radio came, and people fell in love with the new technology postulating that the invention would announce the end of newspaper , instead, it only emboldened it. Newspaper didn't die. Television came, and what was said of newspaper was said of radio, but radio and newspaper still remain very relevant. Now, the advent of the internet, television has refused to phase out likewise radio and newspaper. Truth is, the advent of internet has increased unprofessionalism and have lowered the ethics of the profession. Today, almost everybody is a publisher online(citizen journalism) which has given rise to plethora of litigations in the law courts owing to publication of falsehood. In the US, Trump is still having his election probed after an allegation of Russia interference. So, you are very wrong. Be informed that in the US, and UK, newspaper business have continued to thrive enormously, they subscribe and almost all communities have their local newspaper. know this that in Nigeria, it's compulsory for government organizations to publish their adverts on newspaper. The paper-surface lovers will never trade their eyes for the eye-disturbing graphics of the phones or computers. They simply subscribe. Therefore it can't phase out, instead, the arrival of a new technology will only enhance the work of these organizations. Virtually all newspapers have an online platforms these days where they dole out information to online subscribers and it's the reporters doing the job. What you can say is, journalists must be digital, too. Paper and pen is very relevant .

2. The press is the fourth estate of the realm, watching the other three Estates and retaining the confidence of the electorate. Government is not trusted but the press is trusted. Therefore, journalism will continue to be pivotal towards the stability of the society. Donald Trump has continued to rely on his Twitter account and hasn't had a day off of trouble. His greatest undoing will be his social media account. He has been calling the media 'fake' and he has been finding things difficult. He doesn't want to accept the fact that he needs the media so he will fail as the media will not stop reporting him bizarrely. Journalists and their media houses endorse any presidential candidate of the US, a tradition which has overrided time. If journalism must phase out, then it will come from the west. Recently, when hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico and The Dominican, there wasn't internet service but it was reported. Who reported it? It was flesh and blood!

im not arguing against u that journalism will b not exist.... im with you that journalism is here to stay.... this doesn't need a long article... its a simple thing... print journalism is dwindling very fast... even ma dad who can't do without buying newspapers hasn't bought in years... simply because he has a phone through which he check anything he wants



no one reads newspapers again... if you are not watching news on tv... u check for it with your phone....it needs no argument
