Newspaper going online

I believe that reading news on paper is a thing of the past. Yes, there are certainly still people out there who still pay monthly subscriptions to be able to physically hold a newspaper, but in this day and age, I think reading the news online has become much more favored. It's convenient and it's free! Why pay for news when you can get the same exact news on the internet? People are always on the internet for hours everyday anyways so why not stop by at say, "The Olympian," to read through a couple articles? I personally read the news online only simply because it's more convenient for me. I'm always online so why not stay updated with what is going around in my community and our country and spend 15 minutes reading through a few articles. The newspaper it seems like is hanging on by a thread. It's slowly becoming extinct, and as time pass and more people are resorting to the internet for news, sadly newspaper companies will inevitably be out of business so that means more jobs will be lost. Well... look on the the bright side, we're saving a lot of trees?
