Email helped cause a revolution in business news. The Birmingham Post saw its circulation drop from 200,000 in the 1980s to 100,000 by 2009 as a new website, Businessdesk.com, emerged to provide business news via email. The new website was able to reach readers more quickly and directly using email to share news and stories.
