Not likely, lots of people like to pick something up to read it.

No way. I know many people who do not have computers and don't watch the news on TV. They depend on their newspapers for information. I get a lot of information from my newspaper that is never on TV or the internet.

People still rely heavily on hardcopies of resources for information. Saying newspapers might become exinct is like saying television and movies will take over books. Its on a same scale as sending letters versus e-mails. Sometimes hardcopy letters are more efficient than virtual e-mails.
