Stephen Foster: The future's online but Rupert Murdoch shows print isn't dead as Times Newspapers turn a profit
Foster comments on the recent profits made by Rupert Murdoch through the Times newspaper and his use of the paywall, as mentioned in a previous news post.
The article states Foster's beliefs as to why newspapers still use the print format despite online content clearly looking like the future of newspapers.
He states that the first reason is the sense of prestige and tradition that comes with the print format.
The second reason is due to money, as hundreds of journalists at newspapers such as the Guardian would be made redundant.
He also states that newspapers are still the popular format with the older generations.
