Is it really the end of news?

Are newspapers really on their way out? What does this mean when a historic event happens and people revert back to the print copy?

Demand for Wednesday's post-election editions of the Chicago Tribune heralding Sen. Barack Obama's victory was so great, the newspaper has decided to re-start its presses this morning.

The initial run was approximately 690,000 copies, according to Becky Brubaker, the Chicago Tribune's vice president of operations. The presses wound up running off 410,000 extra copies.
