# of book readers declining?
Has anyone but me noticed that Time and Newsweek do not regularly have a "Books" section any longer? Both mags review movies and have something called "Culture." I am not sure exactly when "Books" officially disapppeared but after searching several back issues of the two magazines its disappearance is obvious. Perhaps my not missing "Books" earlier exemplifies why it is missing. According to a recent article I read, many daily newspapers have also cut back on the space they devote to book reviews, especially in their Sunday editions. Does this mean the number of book readers is declining? Are TV, CDs and DVDs eclipsing the printed word? I hope not.
