NY Times speculates on no-newspaper cities

Everyone knows, we journalists love writing about ourselves (at least that's the perception from non-journalists, one with more than a little truth in it). Today's New York Times offers a roundup story on the state of newspapers today with the speculation that soon there will be at least one major city without a printed newspaper. It concedes there will probably be online sites, but even those running such sites admit their reporting is not at the level of the newspapers. The story also says that without the huge debt loads many newspapers carry, they'd still be profitable.
