We thought the internet was killing print. But it isn't.
An article which says if a newspaper does well on the internet, it often does well in print also. If it does badly on the internet, it also often does badly in print. This is a very interesting idea. I am thinking that they are saying that the internet causes consolidation with less newspapers.

Hundreds Protest Departure of Encino Barnes & Noble.
I find this article quite ironic in a way. It is often the pattern of the big box stores. They move in and cause the closure of many small businesses, then they leave when things are not profitable enough.
I also noticed that they cut library hours to five day service as well.
