As most forms of communication are constantly being evolved and pushed onto the Internet, newspapers have followed with what is now known as “online newspapers.” Sales of print newspapers have been increasingly being low since newspapers have begun to offer most articles in bigger newspapers are now all being posted online. Newspapers have had to adapted to the new computer mediated communication, and they changed by creating online subscriptions to their newspaper monthly/yearly. The issue that I found may be controversial in the future is how advertisements will be involved in this evolution. Of course, advertising takes up most of the revenue newspapers recieve, so where is there a place for ad’s in an online newspaper? And also, how can newspapers decide how much to charge advertisers when it is different for space on a print newspaper? Although I am unaware of the solution to this issue, I believe that in the future, newspapers will begin to have to regulate and analyze the use of the subscriptions through time and occurrence.
