Could the Washington Post soon be an online newspaper only?

Recently Seattle mega businessman Jeff Bezos the CEO of Amazon with his own cash decided to recently purchase the Washington Post.  This paper is usually the first in the nation when it comes to breaking US Capitol News why not it is right there.  This paper really got famous in 1973 for breaking the Watergate scandal that eventually got Richard Nixon to resign on August 8, 1974 when the US Senate was about ready to vote on articles of impeachment.  Then Arizona senator mentioned to Richard Nixon that you should resign to protect the powers of the presidency.  When Jeff Bezos recently decided to buy the Washington Post he states he would have no authority over the content of what the newspaper printed.  As long as press is allowed to ask real questions and get the true story then management and ownership needs to bud out the day to day operations.  Now with Jeff Bezos the owner could he make the Washington Post accessible online only like the Hearst papers did 4 years ago to the Seattle PI which was Washington State's oldest newspaper at the time had published since 1863 at the time.  One of the things we talked about in the Library Technician classes at Spokane Falls Community College in the Early 1990's that information will be for those who could adapt to technology and those who are not in the know will no longer have access it to.  Days of reading an old fashion newspaper or a physical book will be history.  I do not believe this will ever be true.  Because people will always want to be comfortable with a good book and will also grab a newspaper go to their local coffee shop.  Could Washington, DC be one of the first metropolis not to have a newspaper available in the bin.  We shall see what Jeff Bezos plans are for Washington's most read newspaper in the city and usually the first newspaper on the scene for national coverage of White House and Congress events.
