Nothing wouldn't have happened if there were no newspapers in the world. The mankind existed for severl hundred years without newspapers. Newspapers became a medium of business to make big bucks; to black-mail people in power to spread hatred among communities, to sensationalise crime.

The newspapers only helped the society to become more mean and corrupt. It showed them the ways to become more cruel, selfish and corrupt. It taught them to hate other communities, other religions thru the articles and photos it ran as news in its pages.
