Forget the gun/head analogy—shooting oneself in the foot is more appropriate.
One area newspaper called me a year or two ago to see if I would take out a subscription. What would be the point, I said, when you give away the content for free online?
Looking back on it, I feel like I've betrayed my own cause by tossing the local paper down the gutter, so to speak. If I don't buy the paper, the circulation drops, the amount the paper can charge advertisers dwindles, the paper's ad revenues fall, then...down goes the paper. A bit oversimplified, of course, but it's the crumbling of an industry in a microcosm.
