BRACK: Decline of newspapers not good for future of our republic

BRACK: Oh, many of us wish back to the better days of newspapering

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | Back a few years ago, I was optimistic about the future of newspapers. Since then, my faith in their future has continually declined. The impact of the Internet has been far worse than I had realized. What you are seeing with the Internet isn’t just affecting newspapers. How about banking? Insurance? Automotive sales? Retail …Walmart is fighting Amazon, etc. etc. etc.
