Thomas Lifson of The American Thinker has a few thoughts about the decline of Old Media and the rise of Fox, Talk Radio and the Internet. Interestingly, the major printing company for which I work just had one of its best years. But I think that the reason for continuing success in this area is because we are moving to products which are less dependent on newspapers and more towards such things as catalogs and direct mail. If you are a business, printed advertising is still one of the best ways to get your message to the potential consumer. But you don't need a newspaper to get it into the hands of a customer. And with newspapers in decline, I think we will see more and more direct targeting of consumers.
