Electronic medium seems to be the way. that might mean papers on something that can be rewritten etc

And, whilst some news is worthy (though not that i would buy), what have we got now? I do see newspapers (through my job etc) and often it is the same story slightly rewritten (if they even bother with that)

So we are already there.

i just don't see any great shame if the papers fold. but, that is me. others will disagree
