D.O.M. (Death Of Magazines)

With Vibe's recent closing this week it is safe to say that magazines are on their way out the door and within the next ten to twenty years will be considered outdated. With the economy sagging and low revenues coming from advertisers most magazines have been forced to cut back on the number of issues being put out a year, working only four days a week, and staffers saw a decrease in their salaries. We are living in a age where nobody really has time to sit down and read a magazine anymore, therefore we want our content to be available quick, fast, and easy. I think if magazines and newspapers would've embraced the internet a little earlier then you wouldn't see as may magazines and newspapers forced to close and/or reduce their workforce. Right now magazines and newspapers are on their last leg and it is only a matter of time before we see a flat line.
