    This article gives us a possible outlook on the future of online newspaper websites. Video journalism is an emerging trend, and it provides greater economical benefits from its advertisements than regular web based ads. This can help move some forms of online news from paywalls to being "free to the public", since they make up for profits with advertisements.

    This journal article is very descriptive of the turnaround from 6 cent papers to penny papers. It tells the story of Benjamin Day and how he changed past newspapers into the modern, mass media newspapers that we see today (whether print or web). Benjamin Day aimed at a cheaper newspaper with more content for New Yorker's alone, not just businessmen / politicians. In doing so, he also created a business model in which is still being used in some aspects today.

    As it encapsulates one era that has passed, it also has the potential to expand the era we are in. This combining of the best of traditional media with the potential of digital media represents an opportunity to move from the future of newspapers to the future of journalism - in whatever form it's delivered. After all, despite dire news about the state of the newspaper industry, we are in something of a golden age of journalism for news consumers.
