Printing things on paper is dying. Big difference

Bingo. People who say that journalism is a dying profession have no clue what they're talking about

They see there being less newspapers and automatically think, "JOURNALISM IS DYING!" when it's actually growing and evolving into online media.

Journalism is dying. Writin' stuff that caters to your audience's prejudices is goin' on stronger than ever. We're running out of real journalists even as the ranks of bloggers, pundits, and hysterical conspiracy theorists swell.

It is dying in the sense of getting paid to be one, but probably growing overall. Anyone with a twitter account or blog can break news or report on something. This really wasn't the case until social media exploded. Now everyone has a voice. You don't have to own a newspaper, tv station or website to get your story out there. A lot of people write political or sports blogs as a hobby. Unless you make it CNN or ESPN big don't expect to make over 30k
