For a generation, the South Boston Tribune gave voice to daily life in the neighborhood: bake sales, church bazaars, beauty contests. Many a young athlete has basked in the mention of a feat on the playing field or rink.
On Thursday, that voice fell silent: The Tribune published its final edition, which carried the headline, “End of An Era.”

I'm distressed by the trend discussed in your article. I think people feel they don't have the time they require to read because they spend so much time using social media. The net result is destined to be a more poorly informed public with little or no critical thinking ability. This is a fertile field for a divided country....the "know somethings" and the "know nothings". Our place in the world will no doubt fall in influence.
