39、op great journalism and pages of ads.But a recently-published study finds that we may beall wrong about the role of the Internet in the decline of newspapers.According to research by University of Chicago Professor Matthew Gentzkow,assumptions aboutjournalism are based on three false premises（前提）.In

40、 his new paper,Trading Dollars for Dollars:The Price of Attention Online and Offline,which waspublished in the May issue of the American Economic Review,Gentzkow notes that the first premise isthat online advertising revenues（4攵人）are naturally lower than print revenues,so traditional media mustadopt

41、 a less profitable business model that cannot support paying real reporters.The second is that theWeb has made the advertising market more competitive,which has driven down rates and,in turn,revenues.The third misconception is that the Internet is responsible for the death of the newspaper industry.

42、This perception that online ads are cheaper to buy is all about people quoting things in units that arenot comparable to each other-doing apples-to-oranges comparisons,Gentzkow says.Online ad rates aretypically discussed in terms of number of unique monthly visitors the ad receives,while circulation

43、numbers determine newspaper rates.Several different studies already have shown that people spend much more time reading than theaverage monthly visitor online,which makes looking at these rates as similarly incorrect.By comparing the amount of time people actually see an ad,Gentzkow finds that the p

44、rice of attentionfor similar consumers is actually higher online.In 2008,he calculated,newspapers earned$2.78 per hourof attention in print,and$3.79 per hour of attention online.By 2012,the price of attention in print hadfallen to$1.57,while the price for attention online had increased to$4.24.Gentz

45、kow also points out that the popularity of newspapers had already significantly diminishedbetween 1980 and 1995,well before the Internet age,and has dropped at roughly the same rate ever since.People have not stopped reading newspapers because of the Internet,n Gentzkow notes.(1)Which of the followi
