Hi Ashley.,
In this period of economic downturn, advertising overall (except for mobile advertising) has taken a hit. Yes, printed newspapers have taken a major hit, but that does not warranty an increase in advertising revenues for their digital counterpart.

This is contradicting every other website. They say that online news is going up and paper newspapers are going down.
