The mode of consumption, reading, is similar on the web and on the newspaper while radio and TV have different mode of consumption. As an example of precursor, radio news was pretty killed by TV news when it came out. When was the last time you listened to radio news sitting by the fireplace? People listen to radio news in cars while driving because they can't take their eyes off the road. Given a choice, people rather watch TV news than listen to radio news. Same thing will happen to newspapers vs internet news.
