For years, it has been said that newspapers are at death’s door. Every year brings more news of closing. But why is the situation so terrible for newspapers?
Newspapers have a long history. The first newspaper was printed in the 1600s. Their most successful period is in the early 20th century.
With the appearance of radio and TV, however, newspaper circulation（发行量）began to fall. 3 By the mid-20th century, radio and TV had become so popular that people no longer had to depend on newspapers for news. That was especially true for breaking （突发的） news.
Afternoon newspapers were the first to suffer （受损害）. After work, more and more people turned on TV instead of opening a newspaper. That was because TV could provide news happening a short time ago. It’s true that newspapers couldn’t compete with TV on speed, but they could provide in-depth（深入详尽的）reports that TV news could not.
But newspapers suffered another, heavier blow （打击） in the 1990s. With the appearance of the Internet, tons of information became free. Many newspaper readers realized that they could read news on the Internet. There seemed to be little reason to pay for a newspaper subscription （订阅）.
So what does the future hold? Will newspapers die? Maybe not. Many newspapers are now making changes. Some are going digital （数字的）. Some are going farther and taking the industry to places it has never been to. After all, people still want the news. And many agree that newspapers are still an important source （来源） of in-depth news, analysis （分析） and opinions. 4 If newspapers disappear completely, there will be nothing to take their place.
