Newspapers have always adapted to technology
Jack Shafer has a nice piece on Slate looking at how news companies have adapted to technology over the years.
Referring to Pablo J. Boczkowski's 2004 book, Digitizing the News: Innovation in Online Newspapers, Jack notes how newspapers in the US were quick to buy up radio licences when radio started making a splash, dabbled in news by fax and something called Videotex. Then came the doomed proprietary online news systems.
