The intersection between video and newspapers these days so its hard to say where its headed. I think we are in a stage where it still being figured out and with just bezos buying the post that is one stark example of one possible future for newspapers and everyone is doing their own version of it in terms of how they feel they will be able to grow their business for the future. They were able to support having certain number of journalists out on the street. As those companies have slunk, the number of journalists have gone away. The chicago times fired everlast one of the photographers. And including Pulitzer Prize winner. Because they couldnt afford to keep them anymore. So we are now at the point where the old owners, many of the old owners of newspapers are leaving, and new people are coming in from Warren Buffett to john henry to the guy who owns the Orange County register.
