What's probably more likely is that nebulous publications might fail, and instead people may follow many smaller niche online publications. You might read about tech news, supreme court rulings, and something happening in Germany from three different, unrelated sources, but ignore local news about things happening in Amsterdam. These would be run by people with an interest in a particular topic, perhaps as a hobby part time. Hobby bloggers are really quite common so it's not impossible to imagine this.
