I don’t need it.

I think printing companies and pachinko parlours will disappear within 20 years.

Will printing companies disappear?

The countdown to the end of Japan has begun.

Perish the biased media!

Of course, they’re reporting things in a biased way, and they’re manipulating public opinion. And they’re also manipulating people’s perceptions by saying the internet is evil.

Television newspapers are tough.
12Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Tokyo) [ru].Nov. 8, 2024 (Fri) 11:38:00.97ID:sqg+wLpO0
It will probably be something like Kyodo News, or a dedicated information magazine like Nikkei.

I always wonder why the Seikyo Shimbun isn’t used on morning news programs? It has the same circulation as the Yomiuri Shimbun and the Asahi Shimbun, so it’s better than the others, right?

I deliver them, but there are fewer homes that will pick them up now. A while ago, people would subscribe because they would read the TV listings and weather forecasts, but now I don’t watch TV and it’s more accurate to look at the rain cloud zoom radar.

It’s biased, late reporting, and not worth watching.
17Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Zipang) [Nida].Nov. 8, 2024 (Fri) 11:38:56.64ID:VRiGmujO0
A Japanese newspaper?
It’s an American newspaper for Japan.

Come to think of it, I haven’t seen any newspaper delivery men on Cubs or delivery men carrying beer lately. I wonder what they’re doing now.

I’ve really gotten fed up with the big media after Morikake and Johnny’s. I only watch Mosate in the morning now. Pakkun was irritated today though.

Horse racing newspapers are also pretty bad.

If you write useful information I’ll subscribe ☺.

Over the past 10 years or so, various stores nearby have been going out of business, and about half of them ended up in fires, so could they be doing this on purpose?

Thank you, Liberal Democratic Party.

Even as a kid, it had TV program guides and weather forecasts, and also four-panel comics.

I think Nikkei Sankei is fine if it’s cheap.
Isn’t it too expensive for a subscription?
I can buy three books a month.
Also, I’m annoyed that they apply the reduced tax rate.

Reducing co2 emissions is a good thing.

It’s not just Japan. I think the same thing is happening all over the world.

The newspaper delivery system seems to be unique to Japan.

I stopped getting newspapers when iPads came out, and I can also read flyers.

I guess it’s only natural that a business would fall into disuse if it continues to run like a feudal lord for decades without changing its content.

The Seikyo Shimbun and Akahata, which barely survived after Asahi, Mainichi and Yomiuri Shimbun were discontinued, also had Holon sections.
38Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Garden) [Nida].Nov. 8, 2024 (Fri) 11:44:57.32ID:EHGZ9ef+0
Well, we don’t need Asahi Shimbun, evening papers, or sports newspapers.
40Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Kochi Prefecture) [eu].Nov. 8, 2024 (Fri) 11:45:22.66ID:8xV+IeYP0
The way newspapers are handled is insane.

Since the decline is even greater than the population decline, aren’t they no longer needed by society?

Natural selection.
44Anonymous @ Teary-eyed. (Osaka Prefecture) [us].Nov. 8, 2024 (Fri) 11:46:14.62ID:2DJcO6cx0
Because they’re losing subscribers.

Newspapers themselves are not necessary, but it would be a problem if primary source news on the internet disappeared, so it’s hard to say for sure.
