I rearly ever read new papers, but I understand that they are a very important part of the media.  Now because of the growth of things like the web, cell phones, computers, and television there are so many different avenues that people can access the news. If I had to cloose a new paper company that could survive the new era of media.  It would be the New York Times.  For starters I know that they are popular and respected company.  The reason for this is, I no who they are and what they are about and I dont read the paper. For example I live in Baltimore and I never seen the dundalk eagle or read it.  I can at least say that I have read the Baltimore sun a few times.  In my opinion I think it going to be harder for any newpaper company to go out of business period! All these new things we have now operate on power sources and databases. Meaning electricity and saterllites. Somthing could go wrong with those things even in our personal lives.  For example your house power could go out for a storm.  You could break your phone or laptop on the way to work.  If u drop a newpaper I assure you that it will be fine. If its not lol, its alot easier and cheaper to get another newpaper vesus another phone or laptop.  New papers are very cheap to make and buy.  For example you cant framed something you get off the internet.  well you could , but  you wouldn't get that same historical feeling that you get from a new paper.  NewPapers symbolized and records history. What I am trying to say is there are a lot of priceless things that come with newpapers that we wouldn't fully understand until their gone completely.  For example the NewYork Times was founded and purlished in New York City since Semptember 18, 1851(Wikipedia). Which implies that no one living today has ever lived in a world with out newpapers existing. The reasson  I chose the New York  Times versus the othe newpaper companies when it comes down to survival. It was their historcal pass and their present good ripetition. It was very impressive.
