I have absolutely no sympathy for the demise of the afore mentioned newspapers. Every one that was mentioned had an agenda and news reporting took a backseat to that agenda. Quality journalism seems to be a lost art.
Our Village ("happy") newspaper will survive just fine because its a source of information to organize our daily lives here in TV. Yes,I call it our "happy" newspaper, for I feel it hides what would be known as bad PR for TV. So be it, it works for me and goes well with my coffee.
