Creative destruction is an important business and economic phenomenon that happens in all industries where the new and the innovative displaces the old and makes it obsolete. Journalism is adapting and evolving itself to face the changes and disruption due to innovations in ways information is created, shared and disseminated. Author is optimistic that the current dynamics in the field of journalism and newspaper industry will not diminish its economic sustainability. The examples of what does and does not change in journalism are: Although internet creates disruptive business models for newspapers, magazines and books but a sizeable population still likes to read words from paper; Newspapers may not vanish completely but will remain as lower and less important news sharing medium; Internet will have wider range of topics and speedier response but newspapers, magazines etc will hold importance due to their attractive story telling and analysis aspects; Internet journalism is a form of evolution of traditional journalism; Video and mobile content is transformative but written word still holds its value both in internet and print with internet having advantage on the long-form writing as it has no space constraint; Print journalism is expanding and diversifying into various other media formats with multichannel news offerings; Journalism platform is evolving and adapting. Although there is decline in print but rise in online and mobile modes; Journalism has to continue to experiment, adapt, evolve and participate in the various social and technological changes to survive and remain relevant.
