The Death of a Paper

A. What is the article about?
The article is about a newspaper that has been around for about 130 years and is now closing due to lack of funds. The paper had the option of severely cutting staff, but decided to close because the quality of the paper would be severely cut, too. The article talks about how the paper and its goal of quality have been so special over the years, and how it really is a tradgedy that the paper has to be shut down.
　
B. What do you think about the material/information in this article? How does it seem to fit with our journalism class?
It relates very directly back to our class, seeing as we are creating a newspaper. We, too, compete with other forms of media, such as the Source 65 News. It really puts an emphasis on how papers should go all in or all out, because a paper that isn't quality isn't worth printing.
　
C. What questions are you left with? What kind of articles in journalism would you like to read next?
I wonder if the paper will return someday after the recession. Right now it's closing because of lack of funds, but someday the economy will have to improve, but by then will newspapers be dead?
