Why We’ll Miss Newspapers

Tim Berry recently posted an article suggesting that the age of newspapers is on it’s way out if not already out. However, I do still see many people today reading newspapers including myself. I think there is still a great deal of people who rely on the newspaper for their news, but yes, there are much more people that don’t bother with them anymore. Look below to enjoy some common reasons why people will miss their newspapers.
- They are great for starting fires.
- Newspapers make very fashionable party hats for any occasion.
- For the use around the house, you never know when you’ll need something to wrap breakables in.
- Making yourself feel good about recycling them.
- Wrapping presents. Although this one i don’t think gets used quite often, it’s not very pretty wrapping material.
- Quality international and investigative journalism.
