Survery of the current state of Newspaper Media

A recent New York Review of Books artcile, http://www.nybooks.com/articles/23050, provides an excellent survery of the current state of the Newspaper Media. It maintains that, surprisingly, a main reason for the decline of print subscriptions has been the availability of free versions of newspapers on the web. The article also discusses the non-profit news sites, and the growing trend of newspapers to begin charging for online content.
