I used to deliver a free, local paper in my neighborhood on my bike. It made money from advertising and I got paid a couple cents more per paper when there were inserts. Luckily, it only came out once a week so it didn't take up that much time.
I lost my job when they decided to find delivery people who could cover more area in a car. Anyway, I still get the paper every day and enjoy reading it more on paper than I do online. Gotta like the ability to write on it and take it with you wherever you want (read: easy to toss after sitting on the throne a while - a place you might not want to bring a laptop or 3G phone
). That said, unless it can reinvent itself, I think it's just a matter of time before old media dies out.
