Newspapers going out of business - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I heard the news of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer folding recently (but it will remain an online thing), as well as the Rocky Mountain News ending last month. I remember the Cincinnati Post ceasing publication at the beginning of 2008. It should be noted that those publications had competition in their respective cities. I also heard similar news (no pun intended) with the Christian Science Monitor, the only national publication.

How big a problem is this? Are there any others going under?

I sure hope that all newspapers don't stop printing papers--that'd REALLY be
bad news for my dog!
